UNCLE ARRESTED OVER BRUTAL MURDER OF 16-YEAR-OLD NEPHEW IN SAMBURU
Law Enforcement Officers from Baragoi Police Station have arrested 30-year-old Daniel Tanapua, the prime suspect in the brutal killing of his 16-year-old nephew, Alpha Lemoosa, in Tuum Location, Samburu North Sub-County.
Preliminary reports indicate that the tragedy unfolded shortly after the two shared an evening meal. What began as a domestic disagreement quickly escalated into a violent confrontation, ending in the tragic death of the teenager.
When officers arrived at the scene, they found Alpha’s body lifeless in a pool of blood. Investigators recovered a blood-stained Somali sword believed to have been used in the attack. The body was subsequently transported to Baragoi Sub-County Hospital mortuary for preservation and post-mortem examination.
A swift and coordinated manhunt was launched, with officers meticulously trailing the suspect. Tanapua was later arrested at his hideout, where he was found attempting to wash blood-stained clothes in a bid to destroy evidence.
He is currently in police custody, undergoing processing, pending arraignment.
