The family of a British BBC charity worker murdered in Nairobi more than three years ago have said they are still seeking information surrounding the circumstances of her death, after a coroner concluded she had been unlawfully killed.
“Whatever it is that the Kenyan police are reluctant to have brought to light, the collateral damage of that is that we don’t have answers about Kate’s death.” Mitchell said the family of the prime suspect, now dead, also deserved “answers and peace”.
Mitchell said the family had instructed a lawyer to push for an inquest in Nairobi that could explain more about the circumstances of Kate’s murder.
Afterwards, Mitchell’s brother Pete Mitchell called for the Kenyan authorities to properly investigate his sister’s death.
Inquest concludes that Kate Mitchell, whose body was found in hotel room in Nairobi in 2021, was unlawfully killed.
