Kirinyaga detectives are investigating an incident where a government official was found dead at her house in the county.
Reports indicate that the Kirinyaga East assistant county commissioner Jacqueline Waliaula was discovered in her duty house on Wednesday morning.
A preliminary report indicates that the incident was first reported by her nanny who alerted her neighbour, a police officer.
She is said to have vomited a bit Tuesday night and was to go to hospital Wednesday before she was discovered dead.
"Her nanny woke up to her duties of preparing breakfast but suspected something was wrong as she hadn't left her room. She decided to go to her room only to find her lying on the bed on her belly. She called their neighbour, a police officer and it was at this point that she was confirmed dead," an officer aware of the case told journalist George Owiti.
The deceased is said to have been heavily pregnant at the time of her unfortunate death.
A can through her Facebook page shows she kept a low profile as it was updated long ago.
