Police are investigating the recent incident in Nairobi where a man was killed by a mob in the scramble for money.

The incident is alleged to have occurred on Saturday after musician Charles Kanyi aka Jaguar gave out the money but the victim grabbed it, leading to a melee.

Jaguar is understood to be in contention for the Starehe parliamentary seat.

According to police, Jaguar was campaigning in Ziwani when he gave out the money to a youth group.

This prompted a leader of the group to grab the money and run away with it while others pursued him. 

He was later nabbed and beaten to death.
