Investigations into the suspected murder Nation Media Group employee Mildred Odira sharply points at the taxi diver as being the first suspect, reports claim.
Mildred who had being diagnosed with diabetes left her house at around 4am and was headed for the hospital, but she never set foot in any.Her family believes the taxi driver, who was called to take her to hospital, knows more about the receptionist’s death. Their hypothesis is that Mildred’s killer raped her before hitting her on the head and stabbing her on the neck.
An officer handling the case said the driver said he dropped the patient at the hospital’s casualty desk before changing the statement, saying he left her at the gate.
“Davis has not said anything since we asked him whether he was aware the hospital had CCTV cameras,” the officer, who asked not to be named, said.
“On reviewing after getting a letter from the DCI, we learned that the taxi driver was at the hospital but did not drop any patient. The CCTV recording showed the car being driven into the hospital followed by two others. No one alighted. The car sped off immediately after it made a turn at the parking,” Maureen who is her sister told journalists.
Officers from Kasarani police station found Mildred’s body dumped near Allsops the day she left her house. They booked her at City Mortuary as an unidentified accident casualty. The body of the 32-year-old woman was dusty, one leg was broken and intestines protruded from the belly. A close examination showed a wound on the neck and an injury on the head.
