The main suspect behind the killings of bodies found in Kware, Mukuru kwa Njenga, Nairobi, has been arrested. 

Speaking during a press briefing on Monday, July 15, DCI director Mohamed Amin disclosed that the suspect, Collins Jomaisi, was arrested in Kayole and had confessed to luring, killing, and dumping the bodies of 42 women.

 He further confessed to killing his wife, who was the first suspect.

“The suspect was arrested at Soweto in Kayole Sub-County this morning at around 3:00 a.m. in a joint operation by the DCI and NPS officers. He was arrested outside a club where he had gone to watch the 2024 Euro finals.

“The suspect Amin remarked.

The DCI boss intimated that the arrest followed a thorough forensic analysis of a mobile phone that belonged to one of the victims.

The suspect led DCI sleuths to his house in Kware where several recoveries, including a machete believed to be the murder weapon, were made.

“Upon the arrest of the suspect, he led our officers to his single-room rented house in Kware which is located about 100 metres from the crime scene. We conducted a quick search in the house, which led to the recovery of 24 Airtel SIM cards holders with new SIM cards, eight smartphones, one laptop, one hard drive, two flash drives, one memory card and one machete believed to be used in dismembering the victims,” Amin added.

The DCI sleuths also recovered 12 nylon bags similar to those used to stuff the bodies found at Kware Dam, a pair of industrial rubber gloves, six male and two female national identity cards, a female handbag, two pairs of female panties, five rolls of bhang, four rolls of transparent cellotape, a reflective jacket, two title deeds, two notebooks, and assorted documents.
