ARREST OF A MURDER SUSPECT 

Detectives have arrested a 32-year-old man in connection with the murder of his wife in Sabwani Village, Kiminini Sub-County, Trans Nzoia County.

Police officers from Waitaluk Police Station, working jointly with detectives from DCI Kiminini and Crime Scene Investigation (CSI) personnel, responded to the scene following a report from the area Assistant Chief.

Upon arrival, the officers found the lifeless body of Joan Nanjala lying on a bed inside the couple’s house.

The deceased had sustained multiple visible injuries, including a dislocated right shoulder, a deep cut above the right eyebrow, and injuries to the right leg.

Preliminary investigations indicate that the fatal attack followed a domestic dispute between the suspect and the deceased.

CSI personnel processed the scene and documented critical evidence before the body was moved to Cherangany Hospital Mortuary, where it awaits a post-mortem examination.

The suspect, Haron Kibet, is currently in police custody at Waitaluk Police Station as detectives finalise investigations ahead of his arraignment.

About

The establishment, development and growth of Criminal Investigations Department can be traced to the evolvement of the Kenya Police to which it remains one of the key formations. The first police officers were recruited in 1887 by the Imperial British East Africa Company, I.B.E.A. to provide security for stores in Mombasa. It was from these humble beginnings that the Kenya Police was born.
