Chris Msando, the election board's head of information, communication and technology, was tortured before he died, the board told journalists, without giving further details. "There's no doubt that he was tortured and murdered," Wafula Chebukati, the chair of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission, told journalists outside the City Mortuary.
