Police have exhumed the body of a 55-year-old man alleged to have been killed and buried inside his house in Kamkunji B.
Jared Songoro, a mason, is suspected to have been killed before he was buried under his bed. Villagers gathered at the homestead to mourn Songoro, who they said was jovial and always concentrated on his work.
Patrick Kamenjo, an elder, said a man who lived with Songoro was suspected to have killed him.
Mr Kamenjo said Songoro's wife visited the house on Monday after she failed to reach him on his phone.
Locals broke into the house and found a heap of soil under the bed. The body was taken to a local mortuary for tests.
