The man in charge of elections at a polling station in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi, has been found dead days after his family reported him missing, Kenyan media outlets are reporting.
On Monday evening, police officers from Loitoktok, Kajiado South sub-county were alerted over the presence of the body of a middle-aged man in a forest.
The body of Daniel Mbolu Musyoka was found in a forest in Loitoktok. This is at the foot of Mt Kilimanjaro near the border with Tanzania, the reports quote a police boss as saying.
The body was identified by his two sisters. It says the body was found by herders and had visible scars of torture.
“His two sisters identified the body lying at Loitoktok sub-county hospital last night. We are waiting for communication from police headquarters either to ferry the body to city mortuary or to remain here,” Mr Ruto said.
Mr Musyoka, 53, was serving as returning officer at Embakasi East polling station in Nairobi county.
The gruesome find was made by herders. The body was reportedly dumped into the valley of a dry seasonal river. The area is a notorious dumping site for murder victims.
The police boss also said the body was naked. However, they found the man’s clothes — a tracksuit and a Maasai shuka — at the edge of the valley. There were also visible signs of struggle and torture on the victim’s body, he added.
