The gruesome murder of businesswoman Mary Wambui sent shockwaves among many Kenyans with some wondering the extent to which humanbeings are willing to go just to have that which they want and deem right.
What was even more shocking was the fact that the late Wambui’s husband, Mr Joseph Kori has been implicated in the murder alongside his mistress.
The Police might have changed their tune on Kori after nabbing a Taxi driver who allegedly disposed of Wambui’s body but this too will do little to clear the ugly memories of him loosing his wife because of a mistress.
Wambui’s family on the other hand is proceeding with burial plans and has revealed that she will be buried at her husband’s home in Mweiga, Nyeri.
Wambui’s body was found next to a dam near Mugutha estate in Juja Constituency on January 27.
According to a postmortem examination, she was hit nine times on the head and suffocated.
According to Wambui’s sister, Esther Kamangara, the family is yet to set the burial date and is waiting to see if Kori will be released on February 13, when he is due to return to court.
Kori is being held at Juja police station alongside another suspect, Judy Wambui, after Kiambu Senior Principal Magistrate Stella Atambo allowed police to continue holding them for 14 days.
Last week, Wambui’s family explained that although Kori was still under investigation, he still had a say on where the mother to his children would be buried.
Rest in Peace Mrs. Wambui!!
