Police are exploring the circumstances under which a guard contracted to KK Security Ltd lost his life in Kericho.
The body of the 39-year-old man who was assigned at the Unilever Tea Company was found dumped under a bridge near the factory early Thursday morning.
According to John Onyango, the County Criminal Investigations Officer, an alarm was raised by the company’s Chief Security officer who informed detectives that a dead body had been spotted within the premises.
The guard who was off duty at the time is said to have suffered a fatal stab injury that penetrated through his shoulder into the heart.
The sleuths added that a preliminary inspection of the crime scene suggested that the place where the body was found was a secondary location since there was no blood at the scene nor any sign of struggle.
