Youths drag corpse of suspected gangster into a burial, set it ablaze

There was drama at a teacher's funeral in Kilifi after boda boda operators dragged the corpse of her alleged killer into the homestead and set it ablaze.

Mathias Baraka was accused of shooting dead the teacher, Pauline Kazungu, last week. Boda boda operators picked the body of the suspect minutes after police officers had cornered him on Friday. As mourners scampered for safety police arrived and took away the charred corpse before the teacher's funeral resumed.
