A Naivasha based medic reported missing last week has been found dead.

The search for Jane Wambui Njoroge, a clinical officer stationed at Naivasha sub-county hospital ended on a sour note after her decomposing body was discovered buried in a shallow grave in her compound in Raini village.

The discovery comes a day after her house-help was arrested in connection with her whereabouts.

Emotions ran high as DCI officers exhumed the body, with initial investigations revealing that she would have been killed using a blunt object.
