  "account": "On Tuesday morning, a lifeless body was discovered on a boda boda and a woman without clothes nearby in Mutithi, Mwea, Kirinyaga County. The incident occurred on November 10, 2026. The woman appeared confused and could not provide any explanation. According to local residents, the woman was found 10 meters away from the body, under a thicket. They claim that the woman admitted that the underpants found near the body were hers, and that she had been with the deceased in Makutano. However, the resident noted that the woman's account was sometimes confusing, as she would say there were three women involved sometimes only two. The woman has been taken to explain her account to CID officers. The identity of the deceased and the cause of death remain unverified. This incident follows a series of similar cases in the area, including a man's body found in a Mwea rice field in July and another man's body recovered from a well in September. Despite these incidents, there is no link between Tuesday's incident and the previous ones.",
