In a chilling incident in Uthiru, Kiambu County, a 29-year-old woman was discovered dead in her bedroom under suspicious circumstances. Janet Wanjiku Njeri’s body was found by her mother, who had gone to the house to search for clothes for her grandchildren. The deceased was reportedly covered by a heap of clothes on her bed, prompting immediate concern.
The mother, who works at a local salon, had left for work the previous day, leaving Njeri alone in the house. When she returned late at night, she did not find her daughter. Inquiring from Njeri’s children, the mother was told that their mother was at work. This miscommunication led to the family unknowingly going to bed with Njeri’s body still in the house.
It wasn’t until the following morning, when the mother went to look for clothes for the children, that she stumbled upon the lifeless body. Police were called to the scene, and an initial examination indicated that Njeri had sustained facial injuries. Authorities suspect that she may have been murdered in the house, though the motive remains unclear. The body was taken to the mortuary for further examination, and detectives are investigating the incident.
This tragic discovery has left the family and community in shock as they await answers regarding the circumstances surrounding her death. The authorities are treating the case as a suspected murder but have not yet established a clear motive.
