A 29-year-old man, John Kiama Wambua, has been arrested in Nairobi, Kenya, for allegedly murdering his 19-year-old wife, Joy Fridah Munani.
Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) apprehended Wambua while he was walking along Kelly Towers, carrying a suspicious bag containing human body parts.
According to a statement released by the DCI, Wambua confessed to the crime, revealing that the body parts belonged to his wife. He led the detectives to his house, where more dismembered parts were discovered beneath his bed. The scene was processed by CSI detectives, who believe that the blood-stained knife was used to execute the heinous act.
The DCI statement read: “While making their final morning patrol around Kelly Towers in Huruma at around 5 am, Huruma Police Patrol team stopped the suspect – John Kiama Wambua – who suspiciously clung to the heavy backpack.” Upon searching the bag, officers were shocked to discover part of a mutilated human body.
Wambua allegedly remained undisturbed during the interrogation, leading the officers to his house to recover the remaining body parts.
The investigation is ongoing, with detectives working to recover the missing body parts and establish the motivation behind the heinous act. Wambua has been processed for arraignment and will face charges of murder.
