The body of a senior manager with a security company has been found days after he went missing.
The body was discovered in the Mungowere stream in Yala, Siaya County on October 23 at 2 pm.
The family had reported he was missing on Monday, October 21. Police said the body was decomposed when it was discovered by a student.
It had bruises on the face and stomach.
Willis Ayieko, the Wells Fargo Human Resource (HR) Manager who went missing last Friday, October 18 was found dead four days later.
His colleagues and family said Ayieko went missing after attending a burial in Gem, Siaya County.
His vehicle was found abandoned in Sabatia, Vihiga County.
His body was found in the same area and taken to the mortuary.
Police say CCTV footage captured two men abandoning Ayieko's pick-up near a petrol station in Sabatia.
Investigators are hoping to identify the men to provide critical information on how they obtained the vehicle.
It is not clear why Ayieko was targeted. The motive is yet to be established.
Police said they are investigating a murder in the case.
A team of detectives visited various places the car passed as part of the probe into the murder.
He departed the city at around 1 pm but never returned home, sparking concerns about his whereabouts.
His friends said Ayieko was expected to attend another event in Kakamega on Saturday, October 19, but he never arrived.
Some of his friends and family members speculated that Ayieko's disappearance may be linked to his role as a Human Resource Manager.
With many companies laying off employees in recent times, they fear his abduction could be connected to someone he had to let go.
Ayieko's orange pick-up was found abandoned near a petrol station in Sabatia, but he was missing.
It was until Monday, October 21 when the body was found.
