Brother exposes shocking inconsistencies in Justus Mutumwa’s death

The mystery surrounding the death of Justus Mutumwa Musyimi has taken a dark turn, as his brother, Duncan Kyalo, exposes shocking details that cast doubt on the official account of his brother's disappearance.

For weeks, the family of Mutumwa, one of four men who vanished in mid-December, searched in vain for answers.

But it wasn't until his body surfaced in the city mortuary that the horrifying truth began to unravel, a truth that raises more questions than it answers.

Justus Mutumwa, Martin Mwau, Karani Mwema, and Stephen Mbisi Kavingo, went missing between December 16 and 17, 2024.

For weeks, their families have been anxiously searching for them, fearing the worst.

On Thursday, January 30, 2025, the body of Justus Mutumwa was found at the city mortuary, but the circumstances leading to its discovery have raised more questions than answers.

Brother raises alarms over discrepancies

Kyalo, who had been tirelessly searching for his brother, is now questioning the timeline of events following the alleged discovery of Mutumwa's body.

According to Kyalo, he was repeatedly told by authorities that his brother's body had been at the city mortuary since December 19, 2024

However, during his visits to the morgue on December 22 and 29, he was unable to find his brother's body.

"I have been looking for my brother in all police stations and morgues but couldn't find him. I went to City mortuary on December 22, and I didn't find him, I went back there on December 29 and still didn't find him," Kyalo explained.

"Things are not adding up because I received a call to come for my brother and was told his body has been there from December 19, yet I was there two times after that date and I couldn't find him," he added.

Kyalo also mentioned that during his visits, he asked morgue officials to show him the bodies of unidentified individuals, yet he was shown completely different bodies each time.

His brother's body was not among them, leaving him suspicious about the circumstances of the discovery.

In an attempt to clarify the situation, Police Inspector General (IG) Douglas Kanja disclosed that Mutumwa's body was found on December 18, floating in the Nairobi River in the Ruai area.

It was then taken to the city mortuary, but it was not identified until forensic investigations confirmed its identity on January 30, 2025

Despite this official statement, Kyalo's account casts doubt on the timeline presented by authorities, especially given the two previous failed attempts to locate his brother's body at the morgue.

The discovery of Mutumwa's body on the same day as his fellow abductee, Martin Mwau, has further fueled concerns about the police's involvement in the disappearances.

Both men were among the four individuals whose families reported missing in December.

On Thursday, January 30, Police IG Kanja and Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Mohammed Amin appeared in court to respond to orders regarding the missing men. They denied any involvement in their abduction or disappearance.

The situation has left the Mutumwa family searching for answers and justice.

Duncan Kyalo, still in shock, is demanding clarity on the circumstances surrounding his brother's death and why his body was not identified sooner.

The family is now calling for a full investigation into the events leading to Mutumwa's death.

Busia Senator Okiya Omtatah, who is supporting the family, vowed to pursue the case in court.

"We will continue with this case in court and ensure the state is held accountable for the disappearances and subsequent killings," Senator Omtatah declared.
