Police in Kericho are investigating an incident where bodyguards of a senior politician reportedly beat a suspected thief to death and left another with serious injuries. County Criminal Investigation Officer John Onyango said the survivor told them that the two bodyguards, who he claimed are well known to them, picked them up on Monday night, bundled them in a car and sped off. The survivor, who is admitted to Kericho County Hospital, said the duo tortured them before dumping them along the road near Brooke trading centre in Ainamoi Constituency. However, moments later, they discovered someone who had been severely injured a few metres away. The survivor later told the police of how they were attacked by people known to them,” Mr Onyango said on Tuesday.
