According to reports, the 66 year old tenant approached the landlord after discovering there is no electricity or water in his apartment. The two had an argument and the landlord went inside his house and allegedly shot the victim in the upper body. The suspect fled the scene and the victim was transported to a nearby hospital and was declared dead upon arrival.

The landlord was caught by central intelligence and recovered the firearm which will be subjected to ballistic tests. The suspect is expected to appear in the Brits magistrate court today.
