The remains of businessman Henry Maina Muthangu were dug up from a shallow grave in Mwiruti village, Laikipia County by detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).

Muthangu was allegedly murdered by his 44-year-old son Jackson Nderitu, with the motive of inheriting his property.

Neighbors watched in dismay as a team led chief government pathologist Dr. Johansen Oduor exhumed the body of a man they believed was out of town for business.

The exhumation followed the arrest and interrogation of Nderitu, who is in police custody pending further investigations and arraignment.

A post-mortem examination on the body of Muthangu will be carried out on Monday to establish the actual cause of his death.

Area Chief Patrick Mahinda urged children to respect the property of their parents and work hard to accumulate their own wealth.

    But he is right. Mothers make Blunders too. Some have killed their Husbands to inherit Property (to spend on Boyndogos in Kabete).

    Residents of Mwiruti should revenge/do justice for Maina by killing Raila/Wanjiru Nderitu ones he is released on bond.Forget the corrupt MBETE GANG and their failed justice system.Remember you will be next if you give him a chance of living.
