Man arrested after wife’s body is found in shallow grave in Kajiado

Detectives in Isinya, Kajiado County, have arrested a man suspected of murdering his wife after her body was discovered buried in a shallow grave on their farm in Entarakuet.

The suspect, identified as Shon David Rabassa Kioko, was arrested alongside a farmhand who reported the alleged killing to police.

According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the farmhand, Ndayishimiye Deo, a Burundian national employed by Kioko, reported that his employer had killed his wife, 34-year-old Farida Peter Sangka, before instructing him to help bury her body.

Detectives visited the farm following the report and arrested the two men as investigations began.

The deceased’s body was exhumed and the remains were later transferred to Nairobi Funeral Home, where they are being preserved pending a post-mortem examination.

Kioko and Deo remain in custody as detectives investigate the circumstances surrounding the suspected murder.
