Speaking on the incident, the spokesperson of the Kenyan Police Force, Resila Onyango said they are yet to know the motive.

“We don’t know for now why he was killed that way. Experts are handling the matter,” she said.

The matter was reported to police officers who were manning a nearby roadblock. The officers abandoned their post and rushed to the scene. Upon opening the box, a decomposing body of a man dressed in a woman’s clothes was found inside.

It was later established that the dead body was that of the fashion designer and gay rights activist.

Recall that Chiloba had raised the alarm last year that he’d been attacked brutally over his work for the community.
