Evans Mwaura Githua the CEO at IT solutions company Com Twenty One based in Nairobi died by suspected suicide.
Githua is believed to have jumped from the 14th floor of a building along Kasuku Road in Nairobi.
Police believe Githua, 51 died after he jumped off from the 14th floor of a short stay room with an aim of dying.
He had also injured himself by cutting his veins in the hands. He was alone then.
Githua’s body was naked when it was discovered on December 23 afternoon behind the Alba Apartment.
It is not clear what motivated his actions. Entry into his room was gained by breaking the door since it was closed from inside, police who had been informed of the incident said.
His body had visible injuries, which included broken right leg, head injury, injuries on his both wrists which appeared to have been inflicted by a sharp object/material and deep hand cut.
Upon close observation and scrutiny of the bedsitter room it was established that there was a pool of blood spilled all over the room to the washrooms, wardrobes and bed with entire room being disturbed.
One of the seats was found in the shower area with a towel pointing attempts of suicide, police said.
Police recovered clothes, two mobile phones all put on flight mode, wallet, empty bottle of Bacardi alcoholic drink, xylocaine spray, scarpel, fork with residue, lemon water with yellowish liquid, two tablets, empty monster can, black flask with clear liquid, black flask with a wet paste and a bag containing personal effects.
The owner of the room informed police that the deceased checked into the apartment on December 22, 2025 at 2054 hrs alone.
The family of the deceased said they were worried he did not go home on Monday and his mobile phones were offline which was unusual.
