Police are investigating the death of a man whose body was found on the roadside in Ogembo, Kisii County.<\/span><\/p>\n

The body was found in a ditch on the Motonto-Ogembo road.<\/p>\n

It was later identified to be that of Charles Makenge, 40 who is a resident of Kebute village. Police said they are yet to establish the cause of the death.<\/p>\n

This increased to three, the number of bodies discovered separately on Tuesday January 7.<\/p>\n

Police described the incidents as sudden deaths but added investigations into the same are ongoing.<\/p>\n

The first incident was reported in Kiwanja area, Kasarani on Tuesday evening where a body was found under a tree.<\/p>\n

Police said they were informed of the presence of the body of a man aged about 35 and picked it up to the mortuary pending identification and autopsy.<\/p>\n

Locals said the deceased was last seen resting under a tree before the body was discovered by a passerby.<\/p>\n

In Kulamawe, Isiolo, one Peter Muthomi was found lying dead in his house.<\/p>\n

The deceased had earlier gone for a church service before retreating into his bedroom where he was found dead.<\/p>\n

Police said the cause of the death was not immediately known and that the body was moved to the mortuary pending autopsy.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere in Sengera, Nyamira County, one James Makori, 46 was found dead after a suicide incident.<\/p>\n

His body was found hanging from a tree adjacent to his house after suspected suicide using a white mosquito net.<\/p>\n

A suicide note was discovered in the house, police said.<\/p>\n

The body was moved to the mortuary pending autopsy and other investigations, police said.<\/p>\n

In Hamisi, Vihiga County, a mob killed a suspect who was found in a private residence.<\/p>\n

One accomplice managed to escape from the scene in the Nyangori area, police said.<\/p>\n

The police discourage mob lynching and want suspects to be handed over to authorities for processing.<\/p>\n

The body was moved to the mortuary after the Tuesday January 7 morning drama.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
