Body of Missing Bomet University Student Discovered in River
Mary Ann Wangari, a 22-year-old student at Bomet University, was reported missing by her worried fellow students when she failed to show up for classes and could not be located at her residence.
According to her friends, she was last seen on the university premises on Tuesday of the previous week and appeared to be in a jovial mood, not showing any signs of distress or trouble.
On April 4, 2023, Bomet University officially reported Mary Ann Wangari as missing, and the police were informed. A week-long search for her yielded no results until Easter Monday, when locals in the Chebirir area near the campus made a gruesome discovery.
They spotted the body of a woman floating in River Nyangores and quickly informed a guard at Bomet University, who then alerted the police. The body was retrieved by the police and identified as belonging to Mary Ann Wangari, bringing an end to the search for her.
With the discovery of her body, attention shifted to determining who could have killed her and what could have been the motive. Her family and fellow students at Bomet University are grappling with these questions.
The police have a male fellow student in custody who was reportedly seen with Mary Ann Wangari before her disappearance, and he is said to be helping with the investigations.
“More than 10 fellow students have recorded statements in connection to the incident,” Mr Ali Bashir, the Bomet Central Sub-County Deputy Police Commander, said today.
The body of Mary Ann Wangari was taken to Longisa County Referral Hospital mortuary for a post-mortem, which is expected to provide a clearer picture of the cause of death.
However, those who saw her body reported seeing visible evidence of physical injuries. The police suspect that she was murdered and that her body was dumped in the river by her assailant(s) in an attempt to make it appear as if she drowned.
This tragic incident is the second death to occur at Bomet University this year. In February, a female Third Year student at the same university stabbed her boyfriend in the chest after he broke up with her, resulting in his death from excessive bleeding. She was later apprehended by the police.
The death of Mary Ann Wangari has left her family and the Bomet University community in shock and mourning. She was a Communications and Public Relations student, and her untimely demise has raised many questions and concerns about safety and security on the university campus.
Students and staff are grappling with the tragic loss of one of their own and are eager for answers and justice for Mary Ann Wangari. As investigations into her murder continue, speculation and rumors abound. Who could have wanted Mary Ann Wangari dead?
What could have been the motive behind her murder? These are questions that remain unanswered, and the uncertainty and fear linger among the Bomet University community.
The fact that a fellow student is in custody in connection with the case has also raised eyebrows and further heightened concerns about safety on campus.
Bomet University, like many educational institutions, has a responsibility to ensure the safety and well-being of its students and staff. Incidents like this tragic murder highlight the need for robust security measures, prompt and thorough investigations, and effective communication to address safety concerns and maintain the trust and confidence of the university community.
The loss of Mary Ann Wangari has also had a profound impact on her family, who are left grappling with grief and searching for answers. Losing a loved one under such tragic circumstances is devastating, and the family deserves justice and closure.
The investigation into her murder must be carried out diligently and impartially, and the responsible parties held accountable to ensure that justice is served.
