[Courtesy]Caroline Akinyi, the mother of Elijah Obuong’, one of the Kitengela Four men, says her son’s body is “safe”, and that no one should worry about where she took it after the exhumation drama on June 2. Kisumu County Police Commander Samuel Anampiu told The Standard they had launched a hunt for the seven people, including Obuong’s mother, Caroline Akinyi. Obuong’s mother now says she exhumed her son’s body because “it had been buried near the Chemelil Sugar Company sewer line”. Asked whether she has reburied her son’s body, and if yes, the location of internment, Akinyi said: “Elijah was my child. His family members, including his mother Caroline Obuong’, positively identified the body, which had been preserved at the Murang’a Level 5 Hospital morgue.
