A body was discovered in a Kenyan woodland while looking for a British businessman who had gone missing

In the hunt for a British businessman who vanished in Kenya about ten days ago, a corpse was discovered.

Campbell Scott was last seen by coworkers on February 16 while attending a conference for the data analytics firm Fico at the JW Marriott hotel in Nairobi.

Detectives have visited a number of local eateries and pubs as part of the inquiry into the 58-year-old’s disappearance, which was reported to the police when he failed to return to the hotel.

In the Makongo forest, about 60 miles southeast of the city, animal herders found a body inside a green bag on February 22.

Although the man’s identity has not yet been confirmed, preliminary indications indicate that he was strangled. The body has been sent to a nearby hospital.

According to the Times, Kenyan authorities think Scott went to a homosexual bar in Nairobi’s upscale Westlands neighborhood the day before he vanished. He reportedly went back to the pub on February 16 before boarding a cab to go to one of the largest slums in the city.

The police have contacted the UK Foreign Office, and they have asked Interpol to help them get his call logs.

“We don’t know any more than what has been reported and have been told nothing else,” stated one close friend. It’s really concerning. He is the most generous guy on the planet and will go above and above for anyone.

His company, Fico, acknowledged this week that he had been on a business trip and stated: “Fico is investigating the matter with our local partners and local authorities.” As of right now, we don’t know anything more. We are thinking about Campbell’s friends and family.

“We are in contact with the local authorities and are providing support to the family of a British man who was reported missing in Kenya,” a Foreign Office spokesperson stated.

During a family dispute, a great-grandfather drew a revolver on his granddaughter.

After being seen on camera brandishing a firearm on a residential street in Dudley, West Midlands, on August 11 of last year, Martin Gordon, 64, was taken into custody.

In order to confront his granddaughter over the removal of his wife’s ashes from the mantelpiece, the great-grandfather had barged into the neighborhood Samson and Lion tavern.

The family argument, which ended with Gordon brandishing the pistol at his granddaughter and Gordon’s grandson brandishing a baseball bat, was broadcast live on Facebook.

About forty minutes later, police officers with rifles arrived and followed Gordon to a unit on a nearby industrial estate.

Gordon was seated in a black Range Rover when armed cops arrived, pushed him to the ground, and took him into custody.

He was discovered in possession of the firearm, two tasers, a pickaxe handle, and a magazine of blank ammunition.

Live ammunition

Officers discovered a live round of ammo in his sink after investigating his house.

Gordon was accused with two counts of taser possession, weapon possession, and illegally obtained ammo.

Gordon admitted to having the pistol for protection after having £200,000 taken in a robbery and entered a guilty plea at Wolverhampton Crown Court.

Judge Amy Jacobs sentenced him to five years in prison on February 13 after describing the event as a scene from a television soap opera.

“Gordon made no attempt to conceal this weapon and brandished it in full view of other members of the public,” stated Det Sgt. Matt Nightingale of West Midlands Police.

We were able to find him and retrieve the gun in a timely manner thanks to the police’ diligent efforts.

“We’re removing firearms from the streets and locking up those who possess them as part of our commitment to combating gun crime.”
