New Twist As Postmortem Reveals CEO Died of Strangulation

Toto Touch founder Susan Kamengere’s death ruled homicide after pathologists confirm manual strangulation

NAIROBI, Kenya – The mysterious death of Susan Kamengere Njoki, CEO and founder of Toto Touch, has taken a shocking turn after a comprehensive postmortem examination revealed she was murdered through manual strangulation.

A team of six pathologists, led by Dr. J.N. Ndung’u, delivered the devastating findings at Montezuma Monalisa Funeral Home on Tuesday, confirming what many had feared but hoped wasn’t true – that the respected businesswoman’s death was the result of foul play.

Speaking to a somber gathering of press and family members, Dr. Ndung’u emphasized the thoroughness of their investigation and the unanimous nature of their conclusions.

“We have done this postmortem very exhaustively, and all the various parties were represented. We conducted the examination as six pathologists, and we are all in consensus with the findings,” Dr. Ndung’u stated.

“The postmortem findings show clear features of compression to the neck, consistent with manual strangulation.”

The pathologist explained that evidence of oxygen deprivation caused by neck compression was unmistakable, directly linking it to Kamengere’s cause of death.

While other underlying health conditions were identified during the examination, these were ruled irrelevant to her death.

The medical team’s findings paint a disturbing picture of deliberate violence against the entrepreneur.

Beyond confirming the cause of death, the medical team provided crucial details about Kamengere’s final hours that could prove vital to the ongoing investigation.

According to Dr. Ndung’u, the entrepreneur died less than four hours after her last meal, as evidenced by food found in her stomach during the examination. “She died in the hospital, not on the way,” he clarified, dispelling earlier speculation about the exact location and timing of her death.

The pathologist noted that this information came from briefings provided by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, as the medical team was not present at the scene.

The revelation that Kamengere was murdered has plunged her family into deeper grief.

Video footage from the press briefing captured the raw emotion as some family members collapsed upon hearing the official confirmation of what they had dreaded most.

The family has since issued an appeal for privacy during this difficult time while demanding justice for their loved one.

They have called upon investigative authorities to ensure those responsible for this heinous act are brought to account.

Susan Kamengere was widely celebrated as a visionary entrepreneur who had successfully built Toto Touch into a respected brand.

Her violent death has sent shockwaves through Kenya’s business community and beyond.

Friends and colleagues have continued to pay tribute to the innovative businesswoman, with many describing her as resilient and forward-thinking.

Kameme FM presenter Muthoni Baby Top, who was part of Kamengere’s inner circle, has been among those sharing heartfelt memories of the entrepreneur whose life was “cruelly cut short.”

With the postmortem results now confirming homicide, the pressure is mounting on law enforcement agencies to solve this case swiftly.

The DCI, which is leading the investigation, will now focus on identifying and apprehending those responsible for Kamengere’s murder.

The confirmation of manual strangulation as the cause of death provides investigators with crucial forensic evidence that could help narrow down suspects and establish a clearer timeline of events leading to her death.

As the investigation continues, the business community, Kamengere’s family, and the public await answers to the many questions surrounding this tragic loss of a prominent entrepreneur who had made significant contributions to Kenya’s business landscape.

The case serves as a stark reminder of the vulnerability that even successful public figures face, and has reignited discussions about personal security and safety in the country.
