Crime Scene line

Kirinyaga County Police officers are investigating the death of a middle-aged man at lodging in Ndia, Kirinyaga County on Friday evening.

According to Mr Daniel Kangangi, the Kagio town’s Nyumba Kumi Chairman, the caretaker found the man’s body at around 9:30 pm.

“The caretaker is my brother. When he called me I notified officers based at the Kagio Police station,” Mr Kangangi said.

The caretaker, Mr Harrison Murimi, said the man had booked a room at around 1 pm and was later joined by an unidentified woman who later went missing.


“We only charge Ksh. 300 but we don’t ask for personal details. The only thing I can remember is the lady had a red dress,” Mr Murimi said.

Police had a hard time controlling the crowd that gathered to catch a glimpse of the deceased.

Officers said they are looking for the woman but warned caretakers in Kirinyaga county to be wary of taking in customers without getting their details.


“The man is unknown because management never took their details,” a senior police officer said.


The body has been moved to the Kutus Funeral home Kutus pending further investigations.
