A young woman's d3ad body has been found in a latrine inside a Catholic church in Kenya, but the details surrounding her death remain unclear.
Josephine Karimi, a 24 year old woman who had recently started working as a secretary for a Catholic Church association in Kenya, mysteriously went missing on June 28.
After a thorough investigation involving the police her body was found on Monday, July 3 in a pit latrine on the church premises.

The 24-year-old had just worked for seven days at the St. Mary’s Catholic Women Association (CWA) Centre in Kiaragana, Embu County when she was discovered brutally murdered and her body dumped there five days later.
Her family, as well as the entire Kivwe village in Kenya where she was raised, are currently in mourning according to several Kenyan publications.
The family tried to contact Karimi, on Thursday last week after she did not arrive home on Wednesday, June 28, but her mobile phone had been turned off.
Moments later, they received information from a Catholic priest, who told them that Karimi was not at the centre and that no one had any idea of her whereabouts.
“Before Karimi went missing, she had lunch with her mother and went back to work on Wednesday,” her father, Simon Kivuti Gatumu, said.
“But the next day we called to check on her, but her phone did not go through, and we sensed that something was wrong. Then a priest called and told us that Kirimi hadn’t come to work on Thursday. I rushed to the centre and found that my daughter was indeed not in her office, which was locked”.
Shocked, the family desperately searched everywhere for their daughter, but couldn't find her.
The family announced her disappearance in various churches and on social media, but no one knew or talked any information about her whereabouts.
