3 Suspects on trial over murder of Willis Ayieko

A key witness in the murder trial of former Wells Fargo human resources manager Willis Onyango Ayieko has detailed a harrowing account of how the brutal killing was orchestrated and executed. Testifying under protection as the second witness following government pathologist dr. Johansen Oduor, who appeared in court on Monday, the witness, identified only as XYZ, claimed he was paid sh9,000 to transport the suspected assailants involved in Ayieko’s abduction and murder. According to the witness, he was instructed merely to procure a motorcycle for a job with no further details disclosed at the time. Ayieko’s body was discovered in October last year, nearly a week after he was reported missing.
