The body of missing ex-treasury official Tom Osinde was discovered in River Kuja, Migori, in a tragic turn of events. On Thursday morning, police said that Mr. Osinde, who had been missing for days, had been found dead.
Kenyans were left scratching their heads over the occurrence, thinking there must be more to it than met the eye. On Wednesday night, police arrested two of Osinde’s employees in connection with his disappearance.
Donnata Atieno, chief of the DCI in Rongai, has revealed that the suspects in detention are Osinde’s employees from his Ngata house in Nakuru. A member of staff was a driver who was spotted in Osinde’s vehicle.
We have detained the accused while we investigate the abduction claims. Despite spending nearly three hours at the farm, the police have found no signs of their suspect.
The farmhand who worked with Osinde said he showed no signs of concern before he went missing. Before setting off on his journey from Nakuru to Kisii, the farmhand said, Osinde had ordered him to meet a woman he did not know.
On June 18th, it was announced that Tom Osinde had gone missing. In the Office of the Deputy President, his brother Ken Osinde served as Chief of Staff.
On Thursday, June 22nd, the public alerted authorities to a vandalised luxury car that had been abandoned in Sigawa, a village in the Trans Mara region of Narok County.
A black Toyota Land Cruiser without licence plates was abandoned in the Sigawa neighbourhood of Narok, making up the reghe vehicle.
According to rumours, Mr. Osinde vanished while on his way from Nakuru to Kisii.
The police found the missing person’s automobile, which had been broken into and had its battery and radio stolen. The documents the burglars abandoned helped police in their investigation.
The decomposed body of Osinde was discovered in River Kuja, Migori County, on Thursday, June 29, just one day after police officers arrested two staff working in his Rongai, Nakuru county house and linked them to his abduction.
A family’s search for a missing member ends tragically when his body is discovered in a river in a county that is neither his birthplace nor his current residence.
