In a somber turn of events, the life of Kajiado advocate James Onchiri Nyaaka ended in tragedy, found lifeless under his own car on Tuesday, October 22. The police report, hauntingly detailed, paints a chilling picture of his final moments: CCTV footage shows his messenger, Erick Ondiek, dragging him toward the vehicle, before reversing and fatally crushing the man he once served. Onchiri, a respected figure in Kajiado, was last seen alive with Ondiek, sharing a drink at a bar near the Kajiado Law Courts. It was just hours later, around 6 p.m., that his motionless body, bearing the stark evidence of blunt head injuries, was discovered beneath his vehicle at the Kajiado Public Works Canteen.
A post-mortem conducted by Dr. Dorothy Njeru at the Kajiado County Hospital confirmed that chest injuries inflicted by blunt force trauma were the cause of death. The devastating loss of a prominent advocate has shaken the community to its core, prompting a swift police response. Five individuals, including the bar owner and staff, have been detained and are assisting in piecing together the mystery of his death. Court authorities have granted investigators five days, until October 28, to delve deeper, seeking justice for the life so brutally and senselessly taken.
