The two bodies were discovered early in the morning by members of the public who were heading to work.
Witnesses said the victims had visible injuries, raising suspicions that they may have been tortured before being killed.
Police officers quickly arrived at the scene and sealed off the area as investigations began.
Sources now indicate that one of the deceased is believed to be a man commonly known as “Dulla,” who reportedly lived in the Bombolulu area of Mombasa.
Authorities have not yet made an official public confirmation of the identities, as families are still being notified and investigations are ongoing.
According to information circulating among residents in Mombasa, the man was allegedly linked to a group of six individuals accused of running a land scam.
The group is said to have been selling what are commonly referred to as “ghost plots” — land that did not belong to them.
Victims reportedly paid large sums of money in the hope of owning property, only to later discover that the land either did not exist or was already owned by someone else.
Reports further claim that three other suspected members of the same group were found dead last year under mysterious circumstances.
At the time, their deaths were not fully explained.
It is now alleged that only two members of the group remained, with one said to have withdrawn from the alleged fraudulent activities.
Police in Malindi have not confirmed whether the latest killings are directly connected to the alleged land fraud cases.
Investigators say they are examining all possible angles, including revenge attacks or criminal disputes.
