“The College stands with the family in grief and will continue to offer the necessary support during this painful period,” the statement continued.
Preliminary reports indicate that Adhiambo passed away after she was involved in an altercation with fellow students over a missing pair of trousers. She was found dead in her hostel room.
An autopsy conducted on her body revealed that she died because she sustained multiple internal injuries. The postmortem also indicated that she was bleeding from her nose and had marks on her tongue, suggesting she was assaulted.
The post-mortem also pointed out that she could have succumbed to an inadequate supply of oxygen.
Adhiambo’s family have demanded justice and has asked the security to move with speed to arrest and charge all students who attacked their kin and left her for dead.
