A section of Kware residents on Saturday, July 13, 2024, accompanied a police car ferrying mutilated bodies retrieved from Kware dumpsite to City Mortuary.
Videos seen by K24 Digital show some of residents on top of the police car and others following the police vehicles chanting.
According to human rights activist Hussein Khalid, the residents chose to follow police with the bodies to ensure no evidence is lost.
The latest comes amid the shock that has engulfed the area following the discovery of the mutilated bodies on Friday, July 12, 2024.
This came after nine bodies were recovered on Friday.
Human rights activist Hussein Khalid stated that the number is expected to soar following sentiments by local divers who stated that there were more bodies in the pit.
“Presently in Mukuru kwa Njenga assisting with the recovery of bodies. So far four have been retrieved. Local divers are saying there are more in the pit. Sad sad scenes,” Khalid said.
“Nimeamrisha polisi na wale wote wanaohusika; DCI na wale wote wanahusika na mambo ya homicide na kuchunguza vile haya mambo yametokea. Mimi nataka kuhakikishia wakenya kwamba wale wote waliohusika na maafa ya hawa watoto wetu kule Kware mpaka watapata cha mtema kuni,” Ruto said.

“Kwa hivyo, those who are charged with making sure that there is a comprehensive investigation on matters that we have witnessed in Kware where many Kenyans, including young girls, have lost their lives, that process must be expedited.
“The truth must be found so that those who are involved in these heinous acts must be punished, taken to court, and the law applied to its fullest extent.”
