Police in Kenya are investigating the death of an LGBTQ activist whose body was found stuffed in a metal box.
Kenyan police investigated the death of an LGBTQ activist whose body was found stuffed in a metal box as human rights groups on Friday decried the killing and police announced one arrest.
Officers who opened the box found the decomposing body of a man they described as wearing women's clothes. The body was identified as Chiloba's and was taken to the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital to establish the cause of death.“We don’t know for now why he was killed that way. Experts are handling the matter,” she said.
Neighbors were curious about a foul smell coming from Chiloba's house, and Odhiambo told them it was from a dead rat, Kimulwo said. The Kenya Human Rights Commission said Friday that Chiloba was a victim of “another disgusting act of homophobic violence.”
