A baby who died with a fork Jembe lodged in his head might have been a victim of domestic violence.

The Kenyatta National Hospital Chief Executive Officer Evanson Kamuri said the death of Travis Maina should be investigated since the mother could give more information on how the incident happened.

"This is a matter that needs to be looked into keenly since when baby Travis was pronounced dead, his mother Judy Muthoni wept uncontrollably stating that she could have been the one dead since the fork jembe that caused her son's death was aimed at her," Dr Kamuri told the Senate Health Committee at the hospital on Wednesday.
