The prime suspect behind the unsettling gruesome murder of the persons found in Kware dumpsite in Mukuru kwa Njenga, in Embakasi South Constituency has been arrested.

The suspect has been identified as Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, from Vihiga County. Khalisi allegedly dumped the body of his first victim - his wife - in the quarry in 2022. 

The 33-year-old was arrested at a club in Kayole, and found in possession of multiple sim cards. He is suspected to have killed the victims, wrapped bodies in polythene bags that were retrieved in the dumpsite. 

Citizen Digital has established that the suspect was taken to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) headquarters in Kiambu awaiting further police action.

Nairobi Governor Johnson Sakaja confirmed on Sunday that 8 bodies and 12 body parts have been retrieved from the dumpsite as further probe on the horrific incident continues.

Meanwhile, families whose loved ones were missing have arrived at the Nairobi Funeral Home, formerly City Mortuary, to identify their kin from the retrieved bodies.
