More than 50 bodies have been dumped at City Mortuary, now known as Nairobi Funeral Home over the past one month.

Speaking to the press at City mortuary, Hussein Khalid an activist from Vocal Africa, confirmed the reports noting that the deceased who are yet to be claimed by their families appear to have succumbed to gunshot wounds under unclear circumstances.

“We have tried to follow up and have established that since June 25, 2024, over 50 bodies have been brought here, most of them with gunshot wounds,” Khalid stated.

He urged Kenyans who have lost or cannot trace their loved ones to visit the funeral home.

According to Khalid, most of the bodies were brought in during the anti-government protests on June 25, 2024, when protesters managed to break into parliament.

Likewise, Hussein insinuated false reports by police officers regarding cases that have been left unclear on locations and how different people succumbed.

“Citing Shakhil’s case who was shot dead in Kitengela and was registered as a road accident victim in Juja, also, we do not have complete trust in the records here in the funeral home, that is the reason why we are asking netizens to come and try identifying their kin,” he noted.

Additionally, he asked law enforcement officers to stop using excessive force while trying to counter protesters as they are fighting for the rights of all Kenyans.

Since the advent of the anti -government protests, cases of death and abductions have been witnessed with most victims being found with gunshots wounds which have led to uproar from the human rights organizations and activists.
