- A whistleblower claims Brian Odhiambo’s body is buried in Lake Nakuru National Park.
- The family lawyer, Abuya Mugendi, says the informer alleges six bodies were found in a shallow grave.
- The DCI and Odhiambo’s family were denied access to the park by KWS officers.
- The family has petitioned Parliament and appealed a High Court ruling on Odhiambo’s disappearance.
A shocking revelation has emerged regarding the disappearance of Brian Odhiambo, with a whistleblower alleging that his body is among six discovered in a shallow grave inside Lake Nakuru National Park.
According to family lawyer Abuya Mugendi, the informer provided information suggesting that Brian’s remains are hidden within the park’s boundaries.
“I have spoken to the informer, and we strongly believe that there is a graveyard inside Lake Nakuru National Park,” Mugendi stated.
DCI and Family Blocked from Accessing the Park
Following the tip-off, Odhiambo’s family and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) sought permission to enter the park. However, their request was denied by Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) officers, fueling further suspicions.
“DCI officers, who are legally mandated to investigate crime scenes, were barred from accessing the area. KWS insisted that they must approve any investigations within the park,” the lawyer revealed.
Family Seeks Urgent Action from the DPP
In response to the new claims, the family’s legal team has petitioned the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) to take swift action.
“We have requested the DPP to place the whistleblower under witness protection and to intervene in securing immediate access for investigations,” Mugendi added.
Family Petitions Parliament, Appeals High Court Ruling
This latest development comes just days after Odhiambo’s family and human rights activists petitioned Parliament on March 11, 2025, demanding action against KWS officers.
Odhiambo, a fisherman, vanished on January 18, 2025, under unclear circumstances after reportedly being taken by KWS officers. His family has since conducted a relentless search, combing through hospitals and morgues in Nakuru without success.
On February 6, 2025, the High Court in Nakuru ruled that Brian was not in KWS custody. However, his family appealed the ruling, expressing dissatisfaction with Justice Julius Nangea’s decision.
With mounting pressure and fresh claims surfacing, Odhiambo’s family remains determined to uncover the truth behind his disappearance.
