Campbell Scott was found dead in a forest in February, 2025, days after going missing in the capital, Nairobi, where he had been attending a conference.

Investigators believe that the senior director at credit-scoring firm Fico was tortured before his hands were tied and his body was stuffed in a bag packed with pineapples.

The death is being treated as murder, and two suspects have already appeared in court as part of the inquiry. Kenya’s Directorate of Criminal Investigations has confirmed that a further four men have been apprehended in connection with the death.
