PRESS STATEMENT BY FIDA KENYA: Investigations in to the mysterious death of Ms. Mercy Jepkosgei Keino.

His statement that "Observations on the injuries on the body were consistent with the injuries on a body run over by a motor vehicle or motor vehicles," reeks of sheer negligence, especially in light of the fact that there have been conflicting and inconsistent statements by various witnesses.
