    "content": "stage office where he was working as the Operation Manager with Gatundu Travellers Sacco booking office. He had supper with his family and at about 7.00 p.m., a gang of about 10 men, one armed with a rifle and others with pangas stormed into the kitchen where they were and declared that they wanted to kill Mr. Gitura. A fight ensued during which the gang shot him on the head and abdomen at close range and disappeared into the darkness. His wife was also dragged and left in their farm unharmed. Nothing was stolen from the deceased or his family. A report was made at the Gatundu Police Station and the officers responded immediately. The scene was visited and the gang tracked but all in vain. Investigations commenced immediately and two spent cartridges of 5.56 millimeters recovered at the scene were taken for forensic analysis. The body was taken to Gatundu District Hospital Mortuary for postmortem. Investigations conducted so far have not revealed any co-relation with the previous murder of his predecessor. Also, in view of this, patrols have been enhanced within the area to forestall future incidents. However, it is recommended that matatu industry operations be streamlined to reduce cases of tough wars among rival Saccos operating along the same routes."
