Could the body discovered at Koromey
be a victim of Extra Judicial Killing?
Two weeks ago, the country was in a deep shock when stories
of decomposing bodies of three Somali young men found in a river at Muranga
county spread all over.
Hardly had this reality settled, the discovery of a new body
in Mandera with similar operandi found in a small village called Koromey that
is 10 kilometers from Mandera county started circulating in social media
According to a witness from the village the body stayed there
for a month even after the resident reported it to the police
‘’ We reported to the police earlier this month but they
never bothered to come and collect the body’’ Mzee Mohamed told this blog.
The big polythene that was used to
hide the body can be seen here.This pic was taken before the body was taken .
On 27th August 2014, the police visited the scene
where the body lied for about a month for the first time after the area chief
constantly reported on the same. Abdi ( Not his real name )confirmed this to
the investigators of the this blog who visited the area.

On the same day the police dropped the body at the Mandera referral
morgue, plans of secret burial to cover up the discovery of the body begun.
However this was leaked to the public by some of the morgue attendants.
‘’I never wanted the body to be buried
hurriedly. I personally know several families whose Kids are missing. Releasing
of body to unauthorized persons is against morgue rules too’’ A morgue
attendant seeking anonymity told this blog .

The spread of the news that a completely decomposed body is
in Mandera mortuary attracted three families whose kids have been missing for
over three month. On the same day the secret burial by the police was to happen
three families separately requested identification of the same body this stopped
the police from their activity. The hospital administration ruled that forensic
investigation to be carried out to identify the body.

Analysis of the body and the crime scene shows a modus
operandi similar to that of the bodies earlier discovered in other parts of the
country that is believed to be an Extra judicial killings. There has been an
increased Extra judicial killings in the country suspected to be done by the
members of the security forces to suspected terrorist without due process
Could this be Extra Judicial killings? This blog gives you
the analysis bellow to be your own judge
Analysis at the
scene of crime
1)
A five litre jerry can containing Concentrated
sulphuric acid was at the scene. This may have been probably used to incinerate
the body to accelerate decomposition. Incineration done by acids do not have
smell hence reduces suspicious stench smell.
Make judgment who can take enough time to commit a felony and try to burry
evidence?
2)
Surgical gloves. This indicates the killers knew
they could be traced if they use bare hand on the person and hence made no
physical contacts. This reduces impromptu killer – An evidence of well planned
murder probably by – be your judge
Surgical gloves at the scene where the body was collected
from
3)
Waist belt at the crime scene. Most probably
could have been used to strangle. A huge space in the cervical vertebrae of the
body confirms strangling.

scene
Analysis on the
body
A doctor seeking anonymity who carried out
first body analysis at the morgue before admission confirmed to this blog
complete evidence of body parts distortions that clearly point a homicide from
torture.
‘’The skull had a bullet hole that caused
the death ‘’ says the doctor. Pictures of the skull clearly shows a bullet hole
Bullet hole on the skull between the orbit socket
The doctor added bone of the fingers and toes(Phallenges)
were all burnt an indication that an extreme torture probably happened before
killing
Picture sent to this blog too can confidently establish that
the bones of the ribs were broken and indication of extreme beatings
Fractured ribs of the skeleton
‘’From the analysis I carried out I can confidently say this
is a homicide that was most probably done by people who took time to inflict severe
injuries before ultimately killing’’ added the doctor
Discovery of this body has lead toa wide spread fear in the county.
A resident seeking anonymity for fear of victimatization
told the blog that now parent are encouraging their kids to go to boarding
school or travel out of the county to be safe from the security forces
