The exercise was conducted at the Loitokitok sub-county hospital, with five pathologists; three government pathologists including Dr. Dorothy Njeru, one from the Independent Medical Legal Unit and the other representing the family.

After the four-hour exercise on Wednesday, the pathologists came to the conclusion that they were unable to pinpoint the exact cause of death.

They decided to gather more samples for further forensic testing in a federal facility.

Dr. Njeru informed the grieving family members outside the mortuary that the murder was carried out in a "professional" manner because there were no physical injuries to show the cause of death.

The majority of Musyoka's internal organs were discovered whole.

"We cannot ascertain the cause of death. No physical injuries point to the cause of death. We have collected samples from the body for further forensic analysis in a government laboratory," said Dr Njeru.

The body was taken to the Machakos Montezuma mortuary by the family.

Musyoka will be laid to rest in Mithetheni village, Mwala sub-county, Machakos county, according to Jackson Muimi, the family's spokesperson and the deceased's brother-in-law.
