The killing of Nairobi-based lawyer Kyalo Mbobu on Magadi Road has raised questions about the necessity of a post-mortem examination, even with clear bullet wounds. Government Pathologist Johansen Oduor confirmed Mbobu died from excessive bleeding and severe injuries, highlighting the crucial role of post-mortems in seemingly obvious cases.

  • A post-mortem legally confirms the cause of death; in Mbobu's case, it established death from gunshot wounds.
  • The examination helps reconstruct events, such as determining Mbobu was shot eight times with two bullets recovered.
  • Pathologist reports provide critical evidence for court, strengthening prosecution cases and ruling out other potential causes of death like pre-existing conditions or drugging.
