Body dumped in Kinale forest, extrajudicial killing suspected

Kijabe police on Wednesday found a body dumped in Kinale forest along Nairobi- Nakuru highway. It is suspected the man, who is yet to be identified, was a victim of extrajudicial killings.

This was the eighth finding in the forest since the year began. A resident identified only as Gitau said the body may have been at the scene for more than three days.

He said they confirmed the man was not from the area and police said he may have been killed elsewhere. “The body was dumped in the same area where other bodies were found,” Gitau said. A senior police officer, who asked not be named, said only a postmortem will determine the cause of death.
