Earlier, Odhiambo had distanced himself from her tragic death, alleging that she had harmed herself by jumping from the building and there was nothing he could do.
The autopsy report from government pathologists alongside those appointed by the family and officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) revealed that the injuries sustained by the ICT student were inconsistent with Odhiambo’s account.
