The lifeless and badly mutilated body of Edgar Tony, a top 2012 Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) was on Thursday found dumped in Homa Bay county along the roadside.
According to the step brother by the name Odongo Odol, the deceased not only suffered deep wounds on the body but also on the head.
“I received the communication from his immediate brother who told me that Tony had passed away. He had suffered deep wounds in the head and the body. The bruises were so deep but we are not yet aware whether the injuries were inflicted by assailants or after an accident. His family is currently with the body at Jaramogi Referral Hospital,” Odol said as quoted by the publication.
On their side, the parents were disappointed at the death of their bright kin who just recently graduated from Yale University in the United States.
Consequently, his body has been transferred to the Jaramogi Oginga Odinga referral hospital as the police officers launched an investigation to unravel the circumstances surrounding his death.
