Mortuary Attendant, Two Brothers Lynched Over Theft Allegations On Way From Disco Matanga in Kisumu

New details emerged about 3 young men lynched to death at Migosi Junction, Kisumu while on way home from disco Matanga.

According to sources, the three young men, who were suspected of being thieves, were allegedly attacked and burnt beyond recognition after being accused of theft while on their way home from the disco matanga.

The incident has left their families and friends devastated, with relatives struggling to come to terms with the sudden loss of the young men, who were reportedly focused on building better futures for themselves.

One of the victims was identified as Frank Owino, who had recently secured a job at Jaramogi Oginga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital as a mortuary attendant.

The other two victims were reportedly brothers who had recently enrolled as first-year university students at Uzima University in Nairobi.

Their deaths have sparked anger and concern among residents, particularly over the circumstances surrounding the attack.

According to sources, the three were allegedly confronted by members of the public who accused them of being involved in theft.

The situation reportedly escalated before the young men were attacked and set ablaze.

The incident has renewed concerns about mob justice and the dangers of members of the public taking the law into their own hands.

Questions have also been raised over whether the three men were actually involved in the alleged theft or were wrongly accused.

Authorities in Kisumu have condemned the killing, stressing that suspects should be handed over to the police instead of being subjected to mob punishment.

The authorities have since launched investigations into the incident as detectives work to establish what happened before the three men were attacked and identify those responsible for the killings.

Police are expected to record statements from witnesses and examine available evidence to help bring the perpetrators to book.
