Police in Nairobi are investigating the mysterious death of a businessman who was found dead at his home in Karen, Nairobi on Monday morning.
According to a police report on the incident, Mr Francis Kiambi Kiriro’s death was reported by his wife Mary Waigwe Muthoni who told police that they returned home together with her husband at around midnight after spending some time at an entertainment joint at Karen shopping centre.
The couple then reportedly got into some domestic differences after the wife allegedly declined to be her husband’s guarantor in securing a Sh2 billion loan he was seeking to open a business.
After the disagreement, the two reportedly went ahead to sleep in different rooms, only for the 50-year-old businessman-cum-politician to be found dead with vomit on his bedside.
“They each spent the night in different rooms and the deceased never woke up since then, but could be heard snoring throughout the day and night and had vomited in his bedroom. It was until today at around 0600hrs when she went to check on the deceased and she found him lying dead on his bed with some vomits beside the bed,” reads the police report.
“They called a doctor from the Karen hospital who confirmed the death at around 0902 hrs.”
According to police who visited the scene, the businessman’s body, which has since been moved to Lee Funeral Home, had no visible injuries.
Nairobi Regional Police Commander Adamson Bungei has confirmed that investigations into the incident are ongoing.
The deceased, an established businessman, had previously vied for the Tharaka Nithi County senatorial seat but was unsuccessful.
