His family now claims their relative was thrown off the building and are demanding justice for his demise as it remains unclear what really warranted the merciless beating and death.


A few hours later Macharia’s lifeless body was found on ground floor of the building with a number of fractures, bleeding body and his shirt was badly torn following the incident.


“He had a lot of injuries, that is around the waist, his arm was broken maybe twice or thrice, broken legs. But according to people who saw whatever happened, they said that Brian dropped dead,” said Martin King’ori, a close relative of Macharia.


“Brian was a young man. He just got married recently and had not been blessed to get a child yet. So, it’s a young life lost,” added Richard Wachira, his father-in-law.

Police have arrested the club owner alongside the bouncer and a staff member over the death, as the club was ordered shut over the incident that happened past curfew hours.
