Autopsy Reveals How Comedian and Content Creator Tabitha Gatwiri Died
The family of popular content creator Tabitha Gatwiri recently released a statement disclosing what caused her sudden death.
In a statement shared on Friday night, the late influencer’s family revealed that a post-mortem had established two plausible causes of death.
According to the pathologist’s report done at the Kenyatta University Funeral Home, Gatwiri died from suffocation
“The late Gatwiri passed on from positional asphyxia with brain oedema,” the statement read adding that a full toxicology report would be conducted soon to rule out the possibility of poisoning.
Scientifically known as postural asphyxia, positional asphyxia is a type of suffocation that occurs when a person’s position hinders them from breathing adequately.
It typically occurs when a person’s mouth or nose is blocked or their lungs cannot expand properly.
When one passes away from positional asphyxia, autopsy findings typically include brain oedema – the swelling of the brain.
Burial plans are currently underway and Gatwiri’s family is yet to issue an official communication on the same.
