Police in Copenhagen, Denmark are currently investigating
the mysterious deaths of a Kenyan woman and her son in their apartment.
The woman, who has since been identified as Fridah
Rashida – a native of Kakamega, and her 10-month-old son, Kwanza, were
found dead on Saturday morning in Gentofte, a municipality about 20
minutes from Copenhagen.
According to reports from Denmark, police suspect foul play
but no suspect has been arrested so far.
Police said they received a call from the woman’s husband
and child’s father after he reportedly found them dead.
“We found a woman and a little boy. We had technicians
and an on-the-spot forensic clinician to investigate what happened in the
apartment,” investigator Brian Grayston of North Zealand(Nordsjællands) Police
said as reported by the Danish paper, BT.
The husband was questioned by the police upon their arrival
at the scene, but he was later released. He is currently not a suspect in
the case.
Due to the sensitivity of the case, the police in their
press statement could not disclose the cause of deaths or any other details.
“Of course we have talked to the father and he has been
allowed to go afterwards, as everything points to the fact that it is a very
tragic event in the small family,” added Brian Grayston.
