A Post-mortem examination conducted on Faith Musembi, at General Kago Funeral Home has revealed that she died of excessive bleeding.
The Findings according to family, revealed that Faith, the 19-year-old university student found murdered in Pilot Estate in Thika, was pregnant at the time of her death.
“According to the doctor, the uterine bleeding was caused by the placenta detaching itself. “We need the DCI to investigate and determine what caused that,” A relative said.
Faith’s lifeless body was discovered by her father, Boniface Musembi, who raced to her house after receiving ransom calls from her mobile number.
According to the family, they had agreed to the attacker’s prior demands of Ksh27,000 to liberate their kin.
However, the attacker refused to release Faith and instead wanted an additional Ksh33,000 from the family forcing them to report the matter at Thika West Police Station.
However, according to them, the police officers did not believe them saying that they were not of the opinion that there was a cause for concern.
“They, police officers, informed me that it could be a trick played by my daughter’s friends.” Boniface stated.
