In a shocking turn of events, the Nairobi Region Crime Research detectives have cracked a complex case involving the abduction and murder of taxi driver Evans Bikundo Moracha. This gruesome crime has sent ripples through the community, leaving many shocked. The details that have emerged paint a chilling picture of a well-orchestrated murder plot, involving multiple individuals, and an unexpected twist in the investigation.
Evans Bikundo Moracha’s tragic journey into the unknown began on the night of October 11, 2023, when he was forcibly taken from his own home in the presence of his wife, Teresa Masesi Kerubo. Little did they know that this terrifying night would set off a chain of events that would culminate in a gruesome discovery.
Three days later, Teresa reported her husband’s disappearance and the absence of their Toyota Vitz with registration number KDH 833M to Mihang’o Police Station. Adding to the mystery, Evans’s phone was offline, and it seemed as though he had vanished without a trace.
On the same day Teresa reported her husband missing, Assistant Chief of Githuri sub-location in Murang’a County informed the police of an unidentified male body found at River Sagana. The body was not only naked but also bore multiple head injuries, suggesting a brutal and violent end.
The authorities took the body to Murang’a Level 5 Hospital Mortuary for further investigation. Thanks to fingerprinting and analysis at the National Registration Bureau (NRB) offices, the body was identified as that of Evans Moracha, the very man whose wife had reported missing.
With a chilling murder case on their hands, the Nairobi Region crime researchers, aided by the operations unit, initiated a relentless manhunt for the perpetrators. Acting on crucial intelligence, the team’s pursuit led them to Ruringu village in Nyeri County, where they arrested Stanley Collins Muthika, one of the suspects.
Upon interrogation, Muthika led the detectives to Olekasasi in Ongata Rongai, where the second suspect, Kennedy Murimi Kinyua, was apprehended. Shockingly, investigations revealed that Kinyua was a police officer who had deserted his duty station, Akila Police Station in Lang’ata, and was on interdiction. He held the rank of a Constable and was designated as a driver.
During a search of Kinyua’s residence, investigators made a significant discovery. They recovered the deceased’s mobile phone and a stun torch, which the suspect confessed to using to light their way to River Sagana, where they disposed of the victim’s body.
As the pieces of this chilling puzzle fall into place, an even more shocking revelation comes to light. Forensic-led intelligence uncovers a well-orchestrated murder plot that challenges the initial assumption of a mere disappearance and sudden death. It appears that Moracha did not simply vanish; he was forcibly taken from his own home by the sinister duo.
The Twist..
Days later after his alleged dissapearence, his car was mysteriously driven back to Teresa’s neighborhood and discreetly abandoned, a safe distance from her house. Cyber-crime detectives entered the scene, and their findings were truly astonishing. They unearthed conversations, including negotiations for undisclosed payments, between Teresa and the two suspects. These exchanges dated back before Moracha’s abduction, during the time he was missing, and even after the recovery of his lifeless body.
In light of this new evidence, the police have cast a spotlight on Teresa, who now finds herself under suspicion. Her arrest appears imminent as authorities believe she may be the mastermind behind her husband’s heinous murder. It is suspected that her report of her husband’s disappearance might have been a calculated move, initiated only after she got wind of her husband’s body being discovered in Murang’a.
As investigations continue to unfold, the motive behind this gruesome homicide remains a mystery, and authorities are determined to uncover the truth.
This chilling case serves as a stark reminder that appearances can be deceiving, and even the most unimaginable crimes can occur in our communities. The search for justice is far from over, and we can only hope that the answers to this twisted tale will soon come to light.
