Court dismisses foul play in Former Makueni Senator, Mutula Kilonzo’s death

An inquest into the cause of demise of the former Makueni Senator, Mutula Kilonzo senior has ruled out foul play, putting a closure into the matter.

Mr. Mutula was found dead in his bed by his workers at Kwa Kyelu Ranch on April 27, 2013. A government report later revealed that he had passed on from massive bleeding caused by high blood pressure.

His kin, led by his son, the current Makueni Senator Mutula Kilonzo junior, however doubted the results claiming the toxicology samples had been tampered with and claimed cover up for his fathers sudden demise.

Senior magistrate B.B. Bartoo stated that there was no vivid evidence of a cover up since a private pathologist Dr. Ian Calder from UK did not testify or provide a report citing to the interference to the collected samples.

“There is no concrete evidence pointing to any person having a hand in the death of Hon. Mutula Kilonzo ,” the court ruled.
