Concerns over growing number of killings in Kenya
This recent discovery in Utawala follows other high-profile cases involving female victims, adding to the public’s concern about safety in the region.
Just days before Jennifer’s body was found, three women were discovered dead in separate locations across Nairobi.
On Tuesday, October 22, three family members, a mother and her two daughters, were tragically found dead.
Identified as Waris Daud, Amina Abdirashid, and Nuseiba Dahir, all from Eastleigh, their bodies were found in different areas: Bahati, Parklands, and Machakos.
The series of disturbing events leading up to this discovery began when Waris went to a hospital and did not return home.
Amina and her sister Nuseiba left their home in search of their mother, only to go missing themselves. Family member Sumeya Noor later confirmed that none of the three women made it back home, and each of their bodies was found in different locations.
The disturbing nature of these cases has left the public in shock, as the number of recent deaths involving women continues to rise.
As investigations proceed, Nairobi residents and concerned Kenyans across the nation are hoping for swift justice.
Community leaders and activists have urged the public to remain vigilant, report suspicious activities, and work together to create a safer environment for all citizens.
