Lucy Wanjiru, a mother to two of the men killed in Kisaju, wants sons’ attackers brought to book.
Last Saturday, her sons, Fredrick Mureithi and Victor Mwangi were killed together with two others, Mike George and Nicholas Musa in unclear circumstances.
“The last time I spoke to my sons was on Friday and they told me they were heading to a birthday party and I sent them some money … However on Saturday I tried to reach them through phone but they phones were off,” Wanjiru recounted.
After she sensed danger regarding her sons whereabouts, the inconsolable woman decided to involve a neighbour, a friend, and a clergy in searching for them.
“On Tuesday I informed our pastor because they were to meet with him on that day ,Apostle Ben told me not to worry because they had assured him they were to meet with him later that day.After a while I called the pastor and informed him that my sons had been killed,” she further explained.
Condemning reports that her sons and their friends were killed by irate villagers who thought they were out to steal their cattle, Wanjiru asserted that she wants justice to be served.
She said," I want justice for the death of my son, they are not thieves,"
Earlier in the day, Members of the Private Bikers Association of Kenya held peaceful demonstrations in Kitengela protesting the deaths, demanding speedy investigations into the matter.
