Clotted blood stained vomit was reportedly observed on the bedroom floor.
The scene was visited by members of the County Security Committee and the Sub-County Security Committee, who confirmed the incident.

His emains were transferred to Nyamira County Referral Hospital Mortuary, where a postmortem examination is expected to determine the cause of death.
The case has been classified as a pending investigation, with officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) leading further inquiries into the circumstances surrounding the death.
