According to Peter Wakaale the eye witness, he last saw Wekomba at a bar in Shibanga trading centre on September 6.

“It is still not known whether he drowned or he was killed and the body thrown into the river “Said the eye witness.

Emma Shison, another eye witness said the incident happened at the time when the deceased had warned some residents in the area against encroaching on forest land.

He asked UWA officers to desist from drinking till late in the night.
