NAIROBI, Kenya – A harrowing discovery has been made in the Mukuru Kwa Njenga slums, where eight female bodies were found dumped at the Kware dumpsite near a local police station.
The bodies, wrapped in bags, were uncovered by local human rights defenders who believe more bodies might still be hidden in the dumpsite.
The identity of the victims, the perpetrators, and the exact time of their deaths remain unknown.
This discovery comes amidst ongoing protests against the government, which have seen numerous individuals abducted and some have gone missing.
Among the recent victims are a university student and a protester from Rongai, both found murdered and their bodies dumped in different locations.
These incidents have intensified the fear and anger among the public, who demand answers and justice.
“We need investigations to be done! Unacceptable,” Law Society of Kenya President Faith Odhiambo said.
Journalist Francis Ontomwa, who was at the scene, confirmed that all eight bodies were of female victims.
“More bodies might be recovered,” he noted, indicating that additional bags were spotted at the site.
Some of the bodies had been dismembered, adding to the horror of the situation.
The eight bodies have been transported to the City Mortuary, where post-mortem examinations will be conducted to determine their identities and causes of death.
