Nairobi authorities are investigating the murder of Anthony Otieno, an online delivery agent whose body was discovered in a short-stay apartment in South B. The boda boda rider was found beneath a bed with his hands and feet bound, having sustained fatal head trauma from a blunt instrument. Blood seeped from under the bedroom door before the apartment owner made the discovery.
Otieno had been delivering an iPhone to what he believed was a client's relative when he lost contact with his family. An autopsy revealed death resulted from blunt force head injuries, with evidence suggesting he had been gagged and restrained. Investigators recovered the phone he was transporting along with a knife and a metal rod believed used in the attack.
The incident echoes previous homicides in Nairobi rental properties, including a socialite's death that led to murder charges against John Matara and the discovery of university student Rita Waeni's dismembered remains in Roysambu.
