A CCTV footage capturing the final moments of National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) employee, Lilian Waithera before she was shot dead along Kaunda Street on Monday, February 13 has emerged, shedding more light on her death.
The footage which was obtained and aired by NTV captures the deceased and her colleague, Damaris Achieng walking on the pavement as they make their way past a bank located on the street at 5:12 pm.
A few second later, the duo cross the road to the other side of Kaunda street and continue with their walk, but not for long.
Lilian who can be seen wearing a black sweater comes to an abrupt stop three seconds after 5:13pm and is seen looking down and moving backwards.
Damaris also stops and her attention focuses on her colleague who appears to be struggling with movement. She helps her move to the pedestrian walk path, passing between two parked cars.
Business proceeds normally on the busy streets for some time before a crowd gathers around where Lilian had collapsed on the pedestrian walk at ten seconds past 5:13 pm.
