The attack on Molo activist Richard Otieno has caused public uproar after he was brutally murdered by unknown assailants on his way home from a bar on Saturday night.

On Sunday, irate residents blocked Njoro-Molo Road with boulders and set bonfires before storming the mortuary where the deceased's body was being held and paraded it on the streets in a show of anger and rage.

The fiasco has raised many questions over what really transpired in the moments leading to his attack.

Otieno, also known as 'Molo President', was reportedly attacked using an axe by unknown assailants on Saturday night outside his home which is 200 metres away from Elbugon Police Station.
