Gruesome Discovery: At Least Six Bodies Found in Mukuru Quarry, Some Mutilated
At least six bodies were unearthed in a quarry pit in Mukuru Kwa Njenga on Friday, July 12, sending shockwaves online.
Local youths spearheaded the grim discovery, revealing remains in various conditions—some packed in sacks, others dismembered.
Some media outlets report eight bodies have been found, with more still in the pit.
The grisly scene, near Kware Police Station opposite Pipeline, saw active police involvement in ongoing retrieval efforts.
Despite the authorities’ presence, the identities of the deceased remain unknown, and the circumstances of their deaths are still unclear.
The lack of information has heightened local community fears, leaving residents in a state of uncertainty.
Authorities have yet to release an official statement on the incident, leaving many looking to law enforcement for answers.
As the recovery operation continues, a thorough investigation into the victims’ identities and causes of death has become crucial.
This alarming report coincides with claims of abductions linked to anti-Finance Bill protests over the past month.
The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR) has voiced serious concerns, alleging that security forces have abducted and tortured at least 34 individuals since mid-June.

At least five people remain missing, intensifying fears of state actions during this turbulent period.
Activists warn that those who opposed the controversial Finance Bill are now living in fear.
The KNCHR and other rights groups have accused the government of a heavy-handed response to dissent, with former Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki denying any wrongdoing by security agents.
Kindiki assured the public that all abduction allegations would be thoroughly investigated.
“We are committed to protecting every Kenyan from arbitrary arrests and enforced disappearances,” Kindiki stated, as the government faces increasing pressure to address the unrest. His remarks follow accusations that state agents have been specifically targeting protest leaders.
“We will not tolerate impunity,” he declared, calling for a collective effort to restore trust in the authorities.
