"Flu Can't Cause Burns": Nairobi Family Rejects Madrassa's Explanation After Son Returns Home in Body Bag

A trip for spiritual healing turned into tragedy for a Nairobi family after their 28-year-old son died at a madrassa in Makindu, Makueni County.

Ahmed Amir, 28, had travelled to the institution seeking spiritual guidance. But on the morning of September 4, his family was called and told he was dead.

The madrassa claimed Ahmed died of flu. His family says the state of his body tells a completely different story.

"They told us on Friday, September 4 morning that he was dead. Now tell me what kind of flu comes with burns on the body and wounds on the body, including the head," a distraught family member posed.

A witness who saw the body described disturbing injuries including a swollen arm, burnt tissues on the hands and fingers, and torture marks on his legs.

The autopsy report has now confirmed the family's fears, indicating widespread trauma consistent with systemic torture.

The family now alleges that Ahmed is not the first to die at the facility under unclear circumstances.

"We believe Ahmed will be the last; this will not just go away like that," the family said.

Human rights lobby Vocal Africa is now demanding the immediate arrest of the sheikh heading the institution and the closure of the madrassa.

CEO Hussein Khalid said witnesses inside the facility are too scared to speak, and no credible investigation can happen while the centre remains open.
