Chief Government Pathologist Johansen Oduor on Friday made public autopsy results of the gruesome killing of an Eastleigh mother, Wasir Daud, her daughter Amina Abdirashid, and niece Nuseiba Dahir.
Addressing the media after the postmortem exam conducted at City Mortuary, Oduor noted that the mother's hands were chopped off and the face skin peeled.
"When you look at the face, there were multiple injuries with the skin being peeled off. Also for both arms," the Chief Pathologist stated.
"(The mother) had her hand chopped off. She had a neck almost severed totally with injuries to the neck vessels and trachea."
He further indicated that her daughter was stabbed multiple times including one which pierced directly into her heart killing her.
"(The daughter) had one of the stab wounds getting right into the heart. She died because of the stabs," Oduor added.
The Chief pathologist further indicated that the niece passed away from suffocation and signs on her body showed that she was likely sexually assaulted before her death.
Oduor noted that more samples were taken for further analysis to unearth the brutal murder even as human rights activists and the Eastleigh Community called on the police to expedite investigations and arrest the perpetrators.
The trio disappeared on Monday, October 21, and were all found dead in Bahati, Parklands, and Machakos with similar injuries.
CCTV footage showed that the two girls left their home on Monday in search of their mother, who had yet to return home after a visit to the hospital. The daughter was 22, while the niece was 10.
On Friday, detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) recovered a vehicle believed to be at the center of the heinous act.
It was reportedly dumped by the assailants within the Wakulima Market in Nairobi.
Separately, the investigators grilled a woman who was in the company of the three during the abduction and revealed that the abductors demanded close to Ksh1 million to set them free.
According to reports, the family raised the money and deposited it into an Ethiopian bank account but the abductors went through with the murder since their identities had been revealed to the women.
