Meanwhile, the DCI noted that the body of a victim of the suspect’s killings namely Roselyn Akoth Ogongo was identified at the Nairobi Funeral Home by her family, who also witnessed the autopsy process conducted at the same facility.
The family has also visited Homicide offices today to record their statement, further identifying their kin’s handbag which was among the recoveries made yesterday morning at the suspect’s house.
“In her statement, a sister to the deceased noted that the last time she ever saw her slain sister, she stepped out of the house with the handbag.
