Njagwa, who was known for his dedication to farming, is said to have been found with marks of injuries that seem to indicate brutal torture.
The grim discovery has cast a pall over the otherwise peaceful neighborhood, raising urgent questions about the growing insecurity in the area.
“It is a big shock for the residents of Molo after the body of a young man we knew was found naked, killed,” Njenga Matendo, a visibly shaken host said.
