The 33-year-old man, Edward Mwangi was murdered in a farm and sustained serious cuts after being stabbed eight times on December 3, 2018. The aggrieved widow who alongside other relatives was not satisfied with the way the police have handled the murder case, stayed in the grave to prevent her husband’s burial.

Edward Mwangi’s wife and his two cousins sat inside his grave for over two hours, demanding that their kin’s body be taken back to the mortuary.

“Why was the suspect released hours after he was arrested? It is very painful. There’s no burial which is going to take place here,” Mary Wangare, the widow, said.

“We cannot allow the killers to walk free as we reel in pain,” she added. Attempts by Dundori MCA Michael Chege to calm them were futile.
