Police in Kiambu have launched a probe after the lifeless body of a man was found along the Southern Bypass with suspected foul play in his death.

According to Kabete DCIO, Winnie Kendah, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has begun investigating whether the man jumped to his death, fell, or was pushed. "We assure the members of the public that we'll conduct investigations so that we are able to establish whether he actually fell or maybe there's foul play behind the death of the deceased," the DCIO told the press on Tuesday.

The police say they were called to the scene by residents who found the body of the man believed to be about 36 years old.
