Investigation officer Bernard Korir told the Star the body was found afloat River Nyamindi by residents.
“The body was discovered last Sunday, May 16, in the downstream area of the Nyamindi river. It was found naked and had deep cuts in the face,” he said.
It had two bullet wounds on the head and blood was also oozing from the mouth and nose.
On the day he was last seen alive, Bashir had driven into Miale Lounge and CCTV footage shows him dishing money, appearing to be Sh1,000 notes, to bouncers and security guards, perhaps in the spirit of Ramadhan.
At 6:49pm, the black Range Rover he was driving, registration number KCQ 007P, is seen driving off from the facility with the guards waving bye.

Kenya now says it has formally communicated to the UN refugee agency that it will close the Dadaab and Kakuma refugee camps on 30 June 2022.
Interior Minister Fred Matiang’Ã made the announcement after meeting the UN High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi on Thursday.
Mr Matiang’Ã said a team of officials from the government of Kenya and the UNHCR will fast track the process set to begin on 5 May 2022.
The latest roadmap includes voluntary repatriation or issuing of free work or residence permits for refugees from the East African Community.
The government in March gave the UN a two-week ultimatum to come up with a roadmap for the closure of the two camps, which host more than 400,000 refugees mostly from Somalia, South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
