The Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) has called for swift probe into the death of IEBC official.
The body of Daniel Musyoka, who served as the returning officer for Embakasi East during this year’s general election was found tortured in Kajiado County.
Furthermore, Musyoka was found in a river near Kilombero, Loitoktok by a group of herders who reported the situation to police officers.
Moreover, the deceased body of the 53 year old was identified by his sisters Mary Mwikali and Ann Mboya at a local morgue in Loitokitok mortuary.
Nonetheless, through a statement issued on Tuesday, August 16 morning KHRC asked investigative agencies including the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecution (ODPP) to take action to ensure justice to Musyoka and his family.
“We’re alarmed at the shocking news that Daniel Musyoka’s tortured body was found in Kajiado. We draw the much needed attention of the DCI, and ODPP
to conduct swift investigations to secure Justice for Musyoka’s family,” part of the statement read.

Additionally, the former IEBC commissioner Roselyn Akombe just like KHRC expressed her sadness on the incident and called for speedy investigations on the incident.
