Autopsy reveals Kenya Airways staff found dead in Kileleshwa was strangled

A Kenya Airways employee who was found dead in a car in Kileleshwa, Nairobi was strangled to death, according to a postmortem report.

The chief government pathologist Dr Johansen Oduor said the only injuries found on the late Jacquelyne Wairimu Muturi were on the neck.

"She was strangled using bare hands," he said.

Officers on patrol found the body of Ms Muturi at the back seat of a vehicle along Mamlaka Road Tuesday morning.

Kilimani OCPD Peter Kattam said that they had launched investigations into the death.

“We suspect the intention was to murder her since nothing was stolen from her,” he said.

The officers saw the vehicle parked and on checking found the body that had injuries on the neck.

The deceased, who lived in South B estate, had left Kileleshwa where she had gone to visit her sister.

Meanwhile Dr Oduor ruled out any foul play in the death of an American who also died in Kileleshwa on Tuesday night.

He said the postmortem conducted on the body of Mr Andrew Johnson 52, had shown that he died of heart attack.

Mr Johnson was in the country to visit her daughter, who is the country director of Farm Africa, when he collapsed and was later pronounced dead by doctors.
