The truth this days is like a rare ornament.As Kenyans struggle to comprehend cold murders in Kenya, contradicting reports are giving details that keep pushing hopes of clarity and justice in this cases.
Celebrated activist Ms Caroline Mwatha’s body was found dumped at city mortuary on Tuesday, with police claimigshe succumbed to a botched operation.
However according to Caroline Mwatha’s father, Stanlaus Mbai, his daughter didn’t disclose to him that she was expectant as police allege.
“Most likely, police have fabricated the narrative. A 5-month pregnancy isn’t something you can hide. And, my daughter was very open with me. Had she been pregnant, she would have told me. Which kind of an abortion is conducted by deeply cutting the thighs, pricking the abdomen and stabbing the neck?” posed Mr Mbai.
Late Caroline Mwatha and husband Joshua Ochieng tied the knot in 2005, and are blessed with two children.
Director of criminal investigations Mr George Kinoti said there was communication relating to an intended abortion of a five-month old pregnancy between Caroline and Alexander.
He said that it was further established that an unidentified doctor had demanded a fee of Ksh7, 000 and after negotiations the cost was reduced to Ksh6, 000 which was sent to the lady by Mr Gikonyo
In his statement, Mr Kinoti said the investigators believe that Ms Mwatha died at the clinic before the body was transferred to Nairobi City Mortuary on February 7 at 4.42am.
Her postmortem will be conducted on Wednesday, February 13.
