Police launch investigations after 23-year-old woman as raped before being killed in Thika.
The killing of 23-year-old Seth Nyakio Njeri is the latest brutal manifestation of extreme violence against women in the country.
Seth was killed on Monday and her body was discovered at a rented house in Biafra, Thika in Kiambu County.
Her distraught mother says the Zetech University graduate left their home in Kamakis on Saturday a jovial soul.
The two talked until Sunday but thereafter efforts to reach her daughter have been futile; her calls and text messages went unanswered and this got the parent disturbed.
A search was mounted without success.
On Monday morning, the family received a strange phone call from a friend. The caller on the other side notified them Seth had been killed.
Police were notified, only to find the naked lifeless body of the young girl.
“I saw visible injuries on the neck, it was horrible to see that,” her mother Lucy Njeri tells Citizen TV.

Preliminary investigation revealed she had been strangled. Police say the assailant sexually abused the deceased before committing the heinous act.
Investigators have zeroed in on a male friend who was aggrieved after the two separated.
It is suspected that the boyfriend got wind of the whereabouts of the girl, seduced her and ended up killing her.
It is a theory that Seth’s parents dismissed alleging the friend Seth was visiting has information of what might have transpired.
Detectives have recorded statements from the female friend Seth had visited.
