The autopsy result of the Nairobi lawyer found dead in her bedroom on Friday, January 8,in Syokimau, Machakos County is out.
Government pathologist Johansen Oduor who conducted the autopsy at the Montezuma Funeral Home stated that Elizabeth Koki died of suffocation.
According to Oduor, the deceased suffered injuries on the mouth which are consistent with a gag.
"She was suffocated to death," the pathologist concluded.
The suspect in the murder case, Christian Kadima, is currently in police custody. Allegedly, he was the last person spotted leaving Koki's house on the night detectives believe the murder occurred.
According to preliminary investigations, the two were having a heated argument before the incident. It is believed that photos found on Kadima's phone instigated the argument.
Detectives questioned Kadima who stated that Koki fell from the bed and hit her head.
He further explained he drove off in the deceased's car after leaving her unconscious and met a friend in the Nairobi Central Business District (CBD).
Kadima added that he narrated the events to the friend who went to Riruta after they parted ways.
Kadima booked a room at a lodging where the detectives traced him the following day.
