Among those killed were brothers Fredrick Muriithi and Victor Mwangi alongside two others, Mike George and Nicholas Musa in unclear circumstances on August 7 in a case of mistaken identity.
Muriithi and his younger brother, Mwangi, left their home in Syokimau, Machakos county with George and Musa on Saturday riding on three motorbikes to Kisaju in Isinya town.
The four were later killed that night after being mistaken for catrtle rustlers by unknown people, who police are now tracking.
A post-mortem examination at the Nairobi City Mortuary by chief government pathologist Johansen Oduor showed they suffered sharp object injuries that pierced into their heads.
