The body of a murdered Scottish businessman was found in a sack in a few days after the disappearance of his hotel.
Campbell Scott, 58, arrived in the wealthy Westlands in Nairobi on February 15. The next night, he went to a nightclub with an unknown man.
The BBC learned that his body had been found about 60 miles (96.5 kilometers) in the forest outside Nairobi. His hands and legs were tied together by ropes.
Local police have arrested two people – a taxi driver and a club waiter – who may be one of the last to see him alive.
Mr. Scott of Dunfermline of Fife is Senior Director of FICO, a credit scorer.
He is attending a meeting at the JW Marriott Hotel in Nairobi and will meet with colleagues to discuss the speech.
When he did not return to the hotel on February 16, his colleagues tried to call him but were unable to reach him.
They filed a police report and launched a search, and Interpol later joined the investigation.
Police received a report on Saturday that a cattle herder saw a body in a sack, which was later identified as Mr. Scott.
An autopsy is expected later Tuesday.
Anne Soy, deputy editor of the BBC in Africa, said the obvious murder surprised the local community.
She told the BBC Good Morning Scotland Plan: “This is unusual, especially because the victims are foreigners who have just arrived in the country.
“He will meet with other businessmen and it looks like a legitimate business. It really surprises people.
“There is actually no theory for what could happen. The employer asks people not to speculate on any problem with his death.”
Mr. Scott studied at Woodmill High School in Dunfermline and Kirkcaldy Technology College, and worked for many companies before joining FICO.
His death was confirmed on Monday, and a company spokeswoman said the news was “destroyed”.
She added: “Campbell is a leader in our international score business.
“He joined FICO in 2014 and has introduced scores to new markets through existing partnerships and grown our business. We mourn his passing and will miss his humor and kindness.
“Our idea is with Campbell's family and friends. We ask the media to respect their privacy.”
“We are supporting a family of a British man who died in Kenya and contacted local authorities,” the Foreign Office said.
