Empty gas cylinders in the bedroom...puzzle of man found dead inside Kitengela home

According to a police report filed at the Kitengela Police station on Wednesday, the victim, Vincent Opon Kisangi, returned home alone on Wednesday, two days after he left with his wife without a word to their nanny. 

Anne Nyaliki, a nanny attached to Mr. Opon's household, told the police that the victim went to the bedroom upon his return. 

He woke up around 4 am on Wednesday and asked the nanny to leave, as he did not intend to harm her. 

She told the police that by the time she woke up, Mr. Opon was bleeding profusely from the chin, abdomen, and chest, where he appeared to have stabbed himself. 

"The girl took her belongings and left the compound. At around 10 minutes, she heard an explosion at the house," the police report notes in part. 

Neighbours alerted to the screams and explosion found the gate locked from the inside, but according to the police, they managed to gain access, and after a brief search, they spotted a body that had been burned beyond recognition. 

Two empty gas cylinders were discovered in the bedroom and are believed to have been behind the explosion and the resulting fire. 

Property of unknown value also went up in flames during the incident. Crime scene detectives documented the scene of the incident as the probe unfolds.
