Questions as man burns to death inside car in Buruburu

Police have launched investigations into the mysterious death of a man who burnt beyond recognition inside his car in Nairobi’s Buruburu estate.

The deceased identified as Terance Korir aged 36 years burnt to death in his car, a Subaru Impreza, at the parking yard of Mai Mahiu court along Katulo Road in Buruburu Phase 5.

The cause of the fire could not be immediately established.

It also remains unclear how the man, who was on the driver’s seat, burnt to death while on an upright position without attempting to save himself.

Questions have also been raised on how comes only the car’s interior was destroyed by the inferno.

Reports however indicate that the car exploded after the man ignited the engine at 8.30am as he was heading to work.

The deceased was married to a 29-year-old woman with whom they had two children.
