Farm worker found dead with head injuries in Machakos

A 38-year-old farm worker, Musyoka Muteti, was discovered dead in Machakos County with severe head injuries, believed to be a result of a suspected murder. On September 30, farm workers alerted their manager to Muteti's body, which was found on a roadside near Malinda Farm in Lukenya-Manzooni. Police officers arrived at the scene and documented the body lying flat, along with his personal items, including a mobile phone, key, and leather wallet containing his identification card.

Initial investigations revealed that Muteti had been brutally attacked using crude weapons and stones, resulting in extensive head injuries. Crime scene investigators thoroughly processed and documented the scene as detectives began their inquiries to determine the circumstances surrounding the killing and identify potential suspects. The body was subsequently transferred to the Machakos Level 5 Hospital mortuary for preservation until an autopsy could be performed.

Meanwhile, two separate incidents of stabbing occurred in different parts of Kenya on the same day. In Gilgil, Nakuru County, Alfaso Lengewa, 32, was stabbed to death during a dispute on September 30.

The assailant was apprehended by the public and treated before being detained at Gilgil Police Station for potential arraignment in court.
