Nairobi police boss James Mugera said they are yet to confirm if the woman died out of choking or was killed by something else.
Mugera said preliminary investigations point that her death could have been caused by choking.
Muthoni was a mother of three. Police are now probing the matter.
The body was moved to the mortuary.
An autopsy will be conducted to determine the cause of the death.
