The assailants are said to have dug a shallow grave at her farm in Karega, Kigumo constituency where they buried her.
According to her neighbours, Grace Wangari Mwangi, who was in her late 70s, disappeared last week over the weekend.

Police have launched investigations into the murder and have already arrested the farmhand to assist in the probe.
