“It is with heavy hearts that the family of Bashir Mohamed Mohamud informs you that the body of Bashir was found earlier on today at Kerugoya Level 5 Hospital. As the family processes this tragic news and plan for his burial, they request that they be accorded privacy. Even as Bashir rests, the family shall not rest until justice has been served and those responsible for his death brought to book,” a statement by the family that was issued by lawyer Charles Madowo said.

Before going missing, Mr Mohammed called his wife, but the call was interrupted and the phone switched off in what is thought to have been a scuffle. On May 14, his family recorded a missing person’s report at Muthangari police station. His car was found burnt to a shell in a thicket in Kibiku area in Ngong, Kajiado county.
