A businessman found dead at the Lake Nakuru National Park will be buried on Thursday.

Daniel Mahinda, popularly known as Mwas, was the son of Joseph Mahinda, who owns several buildings in Nakuru town.

Nakuru Town East Criminal Investigations Officer Benson Mutie said an autopsy conducted on Monday gave inconclusive results. “We have collected samples for toxicology tests,” he said.

He was found dead on Saturday after checking into the park the previous day. He had driven himself into the park in his SUV, which alerted the game wardens when they found it stalled.

The deceased was the general manager of Farmers World Ltd, a family business dealing in farm inputs with branches in Nakuru, Nairobi and Kiambu.
