Stanley Kipkolomi was found with deep cuts in the neck having arrived at his home from Somalia on Friday. He is one of the few who survived Alshabab attack. According to his daughter who heard him knock told the police that her father came back at around mid night when they were already asleep. "He came at around midnight and knocked severally, I woke up to go and open for him, but mum stopped me she picked a torch and proceeded towards the entrance" she said.
The daughter further told the police that she heard her mother talking to some people outside but didn't open for her father. "I heard mum talking to some strangers outside whom I suspect she knew them because she didn't even shout for help even after realizing that dad had been attacked" she said
