By BRIAN OCHAROMore by this AuthorA British tycoon who died under mysterious circumstances in Mombasa was poisoned with a pesticide, an inquest at a Mombasa court on Monday heard. Former government Pathologist Dr Moses Njue told the court that a post-mortem report showed that Mr Harry Veevers was poisoned with a pesticide known as Cyhalothrin. “The presence of the chemical in the stomach area means it had been ingested while the deceased was alive, obviously he was poisoned,” he told Chief Magistrate Douglas Ogoti. The court was told the soil samples had been taken from the grave after the body of the deceased was exhumed for post-mortem. Mr Richard told the court that his father received death threats from his step mother before he died.
