He had just come from a night out with friends of partying and been involved in a road accident where his car, a BMW 116, rammed into guard rails. Friends and colleagues were surprised by the news of his alleged suicide since he had not shown any clear signs of depression.“He left a suicide note that said he was unhappy for not clinching a job as a magistrate during recent interviews at the Judiciary,” Mr. Okemwa Assistant Director of Public Prosecutions said in a telephone interview with Nation.
Mr. Okemwa's office found out that Mr. Gesire went partying after work on Monday evening until late into the night. On his way home he rammed into road guard rails, extensively damaging his car. His friends helped him tow the car to his house. Kitui Central sub-county police Commander Chrispus Ogutu ruled out foul play, saying his house was locked from inside and a belt was found around his neck.
“So far, we are treating this as a suicide based on our initial findings but a postmortem will be done before we conclude our investigations,” Mr. Ogutu said. His damaged car was towed to the Kitui Police Station while his body was taken to Tribute Funeral Home in Syongila.
