Authorities are conducting an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the death of a man whose remains were discovered at the primary Kenya-Somalia border in Mandera.
Law enforcement officials reported that they received a notification regarding the discovery of a deceased individual, who was not a local resident, near the agricultural area of Border Point One primary school on Wednesday, November 27. Preliminary observations indicated that there were no visible injuries on the body.
It is suspected that the individual may have been murdered elsewhere before his body was abandoned at the location.
The remains have been transported to the Mandera Referral Hospital mortuary, where they will be held for identification and a postmortem examination.
In a separate incident at the Dagahaley Refugee Camp in Garissa County, a ten-year-old boy tragically lost his life after suffering a broken shoulder while playing football.
According to police reports, the boy was playing with other refugees in Block E-B when the accident occurred on November 26. He was promptly taken to the local MSF Hospital, where he succumbed to his injuries while receiving treatment. The boy had previously sustained a shoulder injury on November 10 during a football game within the camp.
Following Islamic customs, the family members conducted the burial of the child.
