It was reported that before the body was discovered, Adhiambo had been caught up in a heated exchange with some students over her missing trouser.
Reportedly, she identified her missing cloth being worn by another student who convinced her to go to the hostel room.
There it is alleged that she was assaulted by five students who left her for dead. Her body was later found by roommate at night to what has now been linked to internal bleeding.
Her relatives who attended the postmortem exercise appealed to police to move with speed and bring the suspects to book.
