Gov Natembeya terms DCI investigations on Kware bodies as sham
Natembeya raises questions over DCI investigations on bodies collected at Kware dumpsite
Natembeya raises questions over DCI investigations on bodies collected at Kware dumpsite.
Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya has poked holes into police investigations of ‘Mukuru Quarry’ murders.
The former Rift Valley Regional Commissioner raised three pertinent questions over the police investigations and the suspected serial killer Collins Jumaisi.
According to the governor, the police investigations were not thorough. He opined that the suspect may have been arrested hurriedly to ease the pressure on the police.
According to the police, the man confessed to killing 42 women. Jumaisi is the only suspect who has been arrested for committing the murders, owing to his earlier confession.
The DCI has apprehended two additional suspects, but there is no evidence linking them to the crimes.
However, Governor Natembeya opined that the serial killer couldn’t have acted alone. The former senior government administrator stated that it would be impossible for the suspect to have curried the bodies alone.
Therefore, he wondered who the other suspects were and why they had not been arrested.
“Bodies are being retrieved from a quarry and we are being told that it is only one person, a young man, did that. It is said that the man cut someone weighing 100 kilogrammes, put them in a sack and carried the body alone and no one saw them. Really?” the governor wondered.
The DCI stated that the serial killer confessed to the murders. Some of the items recovered during a second search of the suspect’s house include a blood-stained hammer, pliers, knife, and scissors.

Preliminary postmortem also revealed that the victims died due to excessive bleeding.
The governor questioned why no one heard screams when the suspect was committing the murders, arguing that the DCI investigations may have been hastened.
“That woman who was being killed, didn’t she scream? Who is this man covering up for? That is laziness. If that man says that he did those things by himself, does that case end there?” Natembeya posed.
The former regional commissioner wondered why the intelligence operatives and the security team in the area did not have any prior knowledge of the serial killings.
He noted that the senior officers in the area need to take responsibility for the killings given that the police are tasked with protecting lives and property.
“Those officers who were in charge slept on their jobs. Those people need to be home. Where were the entire security team and the intelligence? It cannot be one person? Those officers who are tasked with protecting lives need to take responsibility.
“I will not be surprised if the man may have been told to confess to ease pressure,” he stated.
