Three bodies of the missing four friends from Kitengela were found on Thursday, April 29, after a 10-day search.
Elly Obuong, Benjamin Imbai and Jack Ochieng's bodies were positively identified after their bodies were found stuffed in gunny bags and tied with ropes before being dumped within a 30-km radius.
Preliminary investigations showed the trio were strangled to death as they had no gunshot wounds.
Their bodies were registered at mortuaries as 'unidentified male adults'. The buddies were abducted shortly after leaving a restaurant in Kitengela, Kajiado county.

Jubilee Party vice chairman, David Murathe, has denied he is a COVID-19 millionaire and instead pointed fingers at Deputy President William Ruto's associates.
Murathe was interrogated by the Public Investments Committee on Thursday, April 29, and had a tough time explaining his links to Kilig, a company that was allegedly awarded a KSh 4 billion direct procurement tender to supply PPEs to KEMSA.
The former Gatanga MP acted as a guarantor to Kilig but defended himself by claiming the DP's associates were signatories to a Kilig account at the Kenya Commercial Bank.
