Reports indicate that Wagathari had arrived at the station earlier in the day, claiming that he was being chased by individuals from his

 house within the police line.

He spent his morning hours at the station’s radio room with two officers on duty.

The body was later removed to the local mortuary pending autopsy and other investigations.
