What's difficult identifying a dead body?

“The wife of Kiambu businessman whose motor vehicle plunged into a dam in Juja while in the company of a woman he was cohabiting with has appealed to the well-wishers to help her trace the family of the estranged female whose body is still unclaimed at Nairobi’s City Mortuary.”

Why can’t police use their finger prints database to identify the woman?

Good question

Finger print data base ya kenya ni story za abunwasi…i always ask myself kwa nini watu waki renew good conduct ni lazima uchukuliwe vidole kila mwaka

I’m told it’s because all criminals have their finger prints taken so if you’ve committed a crime in the recent past, you’ll fail the good conduct test.

Pale registry the records are in hard copy. It will take forever to match with the finger print collected from the body.
I guess Huduma card was supposed to collect the digital biometrics.
That database of biometrics should be available in all police stations across the country. You are arrested in Wajir, Mt Elgon, Busia or Nairobi and you identity is known by just placing collecting your prints. I do not know what is hard with that.
NHIF uses biometrics to identify patients in hospitals. They can share that database with the police.

They can’t even use phone records to see who the guy communicated with in the last few hours then follow up to see who is missing? Also they could use the IEBC voter database that has all voter fingerprints or ile database ya huduma number that has all fingerprints. Hii watu ni bure kabisa.

The incompetency and laziness in our country is very high.Am sure if it was somebody significant they would already have identified them

Na kwani hiyo kunguru haikuwa na kibeti ata iko na ID, phone, Students ID, anything? Simu yake haina contacts zozote?

Umeni kumbusha…Niliona mahali kwa sosho media wakisema ni 22yr old PYT wa nibs college kimbo…zenye malaya za ktalk hupenda

Mbona unaita elders maraya? Not everyone who prefers soft young meat is whorish. I am 52 but I am eating a soft 19 year-old chick.

:D:D:Di statement yako si inasema tu we ni maraya hautaki kuitwa maraya:D

Endelea kukula nyanya wazee but don’t project your frustrations on us please.

Mi nakulanga tu bibi ata nikaona kuma different naweza stuka sana

Ni atia Kagege? Wimwega?

what about data privacy concerns?
a country-wide police biometrics database system would be a disaster … police extortion tu

Alafu huyo bibi ya mjamaa malaya ile siku alidai kwa teevee alisema the kunguru found with the omuhasi is a known friend, kwani tena hajui friend jina na ni wa wapi? Smell something fishy with the wife’s stories

Ukiwa hai na mbesha, kulambana na marafiki hakuna sida. Ngoja ukufe. Bure kabsa. Ngombe ici

Nguiiii ino

Mbona unakula watoto, hauoni Haya ukitolea mtoto suruari na huyo za white hata zile za matako

Kagege heshimu mimi kijana ya mau mau from metumi. Niwaigua?
