Police in Nairobi are investigating the death of a popular CEO who allegedly died after jumping from the 14th floor of an apartment in Kilimani.
According to the police, the deceased, identified as Evans Githua, CEO of IT solutions company Com 21, died by suspected suicide.
Police revealed that he was reported missing by his family after their calls and messages went unanswered, prompting a search that ended in tragedy when it was reported that he had died at the apartment, which he had booked by himself.
Evans was traced to Kilimani Airbnb by the police, who broke the door, which was locked from inside.
It was established that Evans, whose body was discovered on December 23, 2025, had attempted to take his own life by cutting his veins.
Officers said that the house had blood all over the place, adding that it was after he failed to take his own life by cutting himself that he decided to jump from the building, when he passed away.
A CCTV footage recovered from the crime scene showed that he booked the room by himself.
His body was taken to the mortuary pending autopsy and other procedures. Close friends expressed their shock, saying he did not show any signs of being suicidal.
