Three bodies burnt beyond recognition were found Sunday evening at Matungulu area in Machakos County.

Matungulu OCPD Joseph Chesire said Monday that the bodies were found by members of the public around 6pm on Sunday.

Mr Cherise said two bodies of a man and woman were found a few kilometres from Kantafu trading centre, while the third was dumped in a thicket near the road between Koma and Kenol area.

''The three could have been killed elsewhere and their bodies dumped in the area before were burnt,'' he said.

He said police were investigating the incident and urged the public to assist police with any information.

The three bodies were taken to Kangundo Level 4 hospital mortuary.
