Decomposed remains discovered hanging from a tree deep inside Nyambene Forest in Meru County last week have been identified as those of Fredrick Gitiye, a Biology teacher at Kindani Secondary School in Igembe South Constituency who had been reported missing since December 23, 2025, when he was last seen in Maua, bringing to a tragic end months of anguished searching by a family that had held onto hope he would be found alive.

Gitiye, who was known in the region as a vocal critic of Igembe South Member of Parliament John Paul Mwirigi, the legislator who made national headlines when he was elected the youngest MP in the 12th Parliament, was found by a Kenya Forest Service officer whose routine patrol through the forest led to the discovery of remains that police say had been at the scene for several months, consistent with the timeline of his disappearance, with the body in an advanced state of decomposition, some limbs missing, and a piece of cloth tied around the neck.
