Police have intensified investigations into the mysterious death of Dr. Job Obwaka after a woman believed to have spent time with him before his death was arrested and taken into custody for questioning.
The woman, identified as Beatrice Wangari, is currently being treated as a person of interest as detectives seek to unravel the events surrounding the medic’s final hours in Kitengela. According to preliminary reports, Wangari was allegedly with Dr. Obwaka shortly before the incident that later led to his death.
Investigators have since launched a detailed probe, with forensic experts expected to examine evidence collected from the scene. Police are also reviewing CCTV footage from several locations in Kitengela and analyzing phone communication records that could help establish the movements and interactions of those involved before the tragic incident occurred.
Sources close to the investigation indicate that detectives are pursuing multiple leads while awaiting postmortem findings that may provide more clarity on the exact cause of death. Authorities have, however, remained cautious about revealing too many details as inquiries continue.
The sudden death of Dr. Obwaka has sparked shock and concern among colleagues, friends, and members of the public, many of whom have taken to social media to demand justice and a transparent investigation. Family members described him as a dedicated professional whose untimely death has left a painful gap in their lives.
Police have appealed to the public to refrain from spreading unverified information online, emphasizing that investigations are still at an early stage. They stressed that Beatrice Wangari has not been charged with any offence and is only assisting detectives with investigations as a person of interest.
