Police in Kenya are investigating the death of young fashion designer and LGBTQ activist Edwin Chiloba after his body was found dumped in a metal box by the roadside near the town of Eldoret.
The motive for the killing is unknown, a police spokesperson is quoted as saying in a Kenyan newspaper.
But rights organisations in Kenya, where gay sex is outlawed, are linking it to his sexuality.
One group estimates that more than half of LGBTQ Kenyans have been assaulted.
