The family of Lucy Atieno Hareter is yet to come to terms with her death after she allegedly committed suicide.

               
           
               
                   

The Kenyan woman died in Vienna, Austria about a fortnight ago.

               
           
               
                   

Atieno’s brother, James Auka, said she called a friend and a police station in Vienna informing them she was about to take her life due to depression.

               
           
               
                   

Police in Vienna issued a report saying the 35-year-old threw herself on the railway line at the Bahnhof Atzgersdorf train station in the 12th district of Vienna and was run over by a train, reports say.

               
           
               
                   

“Her body is at the Wien Bestatting Funeral home and Crematorium in Vienna and this is where she will be cremated,” an officer in Vienna said.

Auka who is also the family spokesperson said the family decided to cremate Atieno on July 29 in Vienna, then bury the ashes at their home in Seme Reru, Kisumu a week later.

               
           
               
                   

“In her calls to the police and her friend, she said life had become difficult after her business went down," said Auka.

               
           
               
                   

"She also said that she was no longer able to cater for her needs and those of some of her siblings who kept on requesting her for money back home,” he added.
