Police in Naivasha are investigating the death of a middle-aged woman, whose body was discovered dumped by the roadside near Moi South Lake on Tuesday.
According to witnesses, including herders who discovered the body, the deceased had fresh wounds on her hands, neck, and head that appeared to have been caused by a sharp object.
Locals believe the woman could have been murdered elsewhere and her body dumped near the busy road.
Naivasha Deputy OCPD Samuel Ooro confirmed the incident, stating that the body had been moved to the Naivasha hospital mortuary.
He stated that preliminary evidence points to a possible homicide, with the body dumped at the scene by the killers.
The incident follows a similar case in which a missing girl’s body was discovered dumped off the Nairobi-Nakuru highway near Kinale forest by members of the public.
