Henry Mburu, 24, killed after visiting his girlfriend's house, found her in threesome -Embakasi

 

Embakasi detectives arrest a 24-year-old woman Caroline Mutinda and two youthful men in connection with the killing of a 24-year-old man.

The victim, Henry Mburu Njeri, was wounded in the neck on Wednesday night, March 31, after he visited his girlfriend without notice and found her partying with two men. The event occurred in Embakasi.

“On landing at his partner’s house, which is located on the fourth floor of Charles Mberia Flats, he found Caroline Mutinda[his girlfriend] with two other men making merry while drinking drinks,” the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) stated.

Investigators say Mburu asked to know why the two men, identified as William Nderitu and Eshikimu, were in his girlfriend’s house, and what they were doing with her.

“An argument then followed between Mburu and his girlfriend, leading to the deceased’s stabbing,” said the DCI.

Detectives are yet to establish who among the three (Caroline and his two male visitors) fatally killed Mburu.

“What is clear, however, is that Mburu slithered down the flight of stairs to seek help. Sadly, he collapsed as he approached the apartment’s gate. He bled to death,” said the DCI.

Caroline’s next-door-neighbour, Pauline Naliaka, told detectives that she heard a confusion originating from the suspect’s house on Wednesday night.

“When I got outside my house, I found many people in the compound saying that somebody had been killed, and upon moving closer, I found that the dead was Caroline’s boyfriend Henry Mburu,” said Naliaka.

The three suspects, Caroline, Nderitu and Eshikimu, were arrested and will be arraigned in court on Tuesday, April 6, when they will answer to murder charges.

Detectives say inquiries into Mburu’s killing are ongoing, “with efforts to retrieve the murder weapon being increased”.
