Mutilàted bodies of Kenyan Twitter influencer and three of his friends found dùmped in forest

 

 

A popular Twitter influencer, Frank Obegi, and three of his friends, Elijah Omeka, Mose Nyachae, and Fred Obare Mokaya, have been brùtally mùrdered in Kenya.

It was gathered that the bodies of Obegi, Elijah Omeka, and Mose Nyachae were found dùmped in a forest in Lari, Kiambu County, on Sunday, June 19, while that of Fred Obare Mokaya was found in Magadi, Kajiado County.

Three of the victims were extensively mangled, and it appears they were kìlled by strangulation and had their priváate par5ts cut, according to Lari OCPD, Anderson Furaha.

“One of them had been partly eaten by wild animals. Their private parts had been amputated and it seems they died through strangulation. They had no identification documents and were naked,” Furaha said.

The four friends were reported to have gone missing between Monday and Wednesday last week from Kasarani, Nairobi County, before the gruesome discovery was made.

Family sources told Nation.africa that two of the men went to file a missing persons report following the disappearance of one of their friends, only for them to disappear too.

After one body was discovered on Saturday and three more on Sunday, residents in Lari alerted authorities.

“We sùspect that the four were kìlled elsewhere and their bodies dùmped within this area,” Philip Kamau.All the four bodies had deep cuts to the neck, and chopped priìvate paàrts. We are now scared because this is new to this area”, a resident said.

Furaha revealed that the police have begun an investigation into the case in order to find the kìillers.
