The family of Gilbert Kinyua remains in anguish, weeks after his mysterious death at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), as they are yet to receive his body for burial.
Kinyua, who was admitted to KNH for treatment of a rare neurological disorder, reportedly died under unclear circumstances in his hospital room.His family was urgently summoned to the hospital three weeks ago, only to be informed that he had been murdered.
However, they have been informed that his body will not be released until investigations into his murder are complete.
His wife, Susan Wanjiku, has expressed frustration over the lack of communication from the hospital and authorities, leaving them in limbo.
“We have been waiting for justice, but we have not received any report from the hospital,” she lamented.
The family insists that until they get clear answers about Kinyua’s death, they cannot proceed with his burial.
Their calls for justice have grown louder as days pass, with no indication of when the probe will be completed.
Meanwhile, KNH has remained tight-lipped about the ongoing investigation, only stating that it is in the hands of law enforcement.
The family, however, fears that the delay could hinder justice and prolong their suffering.
As they wait for closure, they are urging authorities to expedite the probe and provide them with the truth about what happened to their loved one.
