A Standard Six pupil who went missing after attending a funeral was found dead on a neighbour's farm in Busia County.
Residents of Namuduru sub-location in Samia Sub-County received a rude awakening on Monday morning when the body of 17-year-old Immaculate Auma was found after a two-day search.
“This girl is reported to have gone missing on Saturday night and her lifeless body has been found today after the family’s fruitless search yesterday,” Namuduru Assistant Chief Josephat Sunday Makokha told reporters.
The girl was allegedly kidnapped by an unidentified suspect on Saturday night, February 20 on her way home after she attended a funeral in a home nearby.
Makokha in condemning the incident warned parents to be vigilant and remain aware of their children's whereabouts at all times.
Walter Ojwang, the father of the deceased, revealed that his daughter had attended the funeral on Saturday but did not return home.
“I just pray that investigations be carried out so that the suspect can be brought to book and face the full force of the law,” he decried.
The girl is alleged to have been defiled and killed in a separate location and her body dumped at the neighbour’s farm.
Police have launched investigations to uncover the perpetrators of the crime.
The incident follows similar reports of businesswoman Caroline Wanjiku Maina based in Nairobi who went missing was on Friday, February 19 found dead in Kajiado.
