Thursday, February 16, 2023 – Police in Tahko, Finland have launched investigations into the mysterious death of a Kenyan woman and her daughter.
Catherine Anyango and her daughter went missing for 7 days before their bodies were found inside their van at the parking lot.
Catherine’s relatives got suspicious after they tried to reach her without success, prompting them to report the matter to the police.
According to local media, the deceased woman and her daughter were last seen going to work.
However, they did not return home after that.
They are suspected of dying of carbon monoxide poisoning after retiring to their van in freezing Tahko temperatures.
Local police said the matter is being investigated, but at the moment, they say there might not have been foul play.
Information from the family WahtsApp group indicated that the duo had gone missing for 7 days.
“The deceased Beatrice and Mitchell were last seen alive at 04.00 of Saturday morning doing their daily selling of food in their truck.
Apparently, after closing the business, it’s suspected that they decided to take a nap in the track based on the position they were found in sleeping side by side,” the WhatsApp message read in part.
“After the autopsy, it’s been discovered that the cause of death is inhaling carbon monoxide in their sleep leading to the luck of oxygen.
So it’s possible that they used charcoal to cook or something that produce carbon monoxide because the track had carbon monoxide.
The police have allowed for funeral arrangements and collection of the bodies ASAP,” they added.
The duo owned a food cart company and specialized in ‘ethnic’ food, including samosas.
