Two people were burnt to death after the house they were sleeping in was razed down in a mysterious night inferno in Kavangua village, Embu East.

Their bodies, which were burnt beyond recognition, were discovered the following morning after residents woke up to find the mud-walled house reduced to a pile of ash and debris.
