The driver who was drunk at the time of discovery suspected that the lady must have been knocked down by a passing car considering the state in which she was found.

Ngong Bernard a passerby who was attracted by a crowd as early as 9:30 am says that the crowd were discussing the cause of death of this yet to be identified lady, but he believes she was assassinated.
