Shock after residents find sack with different human body parts dumped in Mathare River
A sack with different human body parts has been discovered in Kariobangi near the Riverside Bridge along the Mathare River
A sack with different human body parts has been discovered in Kariobangi near the Riverside Bridge along the Mathare River.
Speaking to the media, Habib Omar, a human rights activist from the Kariobangi Social Justice Centre who is at the scene, revealed that the different parts of the body have been disposed of in different sacks.
The parts are said to be in different sacks, with one sack seen with what looks like the majority of the body.
It remains unclear when the body was dumped and whether it was dumped in the area or else and was dragged by the water.
They are yet to determine if the parts are from one body or more. According to Omar, police are yet to get to the scene.
Agitated residents have complained that they have been waiting for the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officers from the homicide department, who are taking too long to respond.
A mammoth of a crowd has surrounded the river as they wait for the officers to turn up so they can open the sack. The residents have awaited for the DCI officers response since 7am.

DCIO Starehe was among the first respondents tried to calm the residents who were visibly angered and kept on questioning the whereabouts of the DCI officers.
The Starehe DCIO, Mr Amani oversaw the retrieval of the body and alleged that the parts of the body were parts of a female who had already disappeared, but only a few parts were found.
“These are body parts that the police have been looking for over the past five days. It is not a fresh body, we already had a female body with missing parts in our possession, and these are the parts we have been looking for,” the DCIO claimed.
“Now we have a full body of the diseased,” he continued.
The body parts have been taken to the morgue for further investigations.
This comes at a time when the country has been faced with numerous cases of forced disappearances.
