He additionally noted that the police were present at the location upon his arrival.
The family of the deceased has urged detectives to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the incident.
"We don't know for what reason. We don't know whether it was by design. We don't know why, we have so many questions than answers," Njomo's uncle added.
