Teacher’s Death Raises Questions; Residents Allege Foul Play
A retired teacher from Nyamira County was discovered deceased; his body was found hanging from a tree on Sunday morning. Although residents dispute it being a suicide, they suspect foul play with the body seemingly placed in the forest.
The family reports that the teacher received a phone call instructing him to collect payment for a debt he owed in Kisii Town. He recently sold a piece of land for Ksh2.5 million and a car for Ksh400,000, anticipating payment from the debtor. His phone went offline after leaving home, and attempts to contact him were unsuccessful.
