More victims have come forward to report harrowing experiences following a Citizen TV expose' on an American national accused of being a serial Tinder predator in Nairobi.

The suspect, identified as King Nwachukwu, is currently in police custody and is scheduled to appear at the Kibera Law Courts on August 31 for his bail application.

Following the broadcast, a new survivor has shared a terrifying account of sexual assault, forced drugging, and digital manipulation that closely matches Nwachukwu's alleged modus operandi.

According to her official statement with police, the interaction began on Tinder around 11am on the 12th of the month when the suspect pushed for an immediate daytime hangout.

He repeatedly delayed the meeting from 1:30pm to 3pm under the guise of running grocery errands before finally instructing her to come over at 6pm.

Upon her arrival at the GTC apartment complex via Uber, he refused to come down to settle the transit fare, falsely promising a full refund and reassuring her that he would "treat her good."

After waiting at the reception area for 15 minutes, she was escorted upstairs to his unit.

The victim revealed that Nwachukwu's friendly demeanor vanished the moment the apartment door closed behind them.

He ordered her to remove her shoes, took her handbag, pulled off her sweater, and aggressively dragged her into the bedroom instead of allowing her into the sitting room.

When she questioned the sudden physical aggression and complete lack of consent, the suspect reportedly shouted and threatened her, before subjecting her to a violent, multi-hour assault.

Despite her crying, actively resisting, and demanding protection, the suspect dismissed her pleas by stating that he did not have any protection.

The survivor detailed multiple rounds of forced, degrading sexual acts where she was continuously threatened and ordered to continue against her will.

The ordeal took an even more sinister turn after the physical abuse when the suspect went to the kitchen to fetch a glass of water.

He retrieved a blister pack of unidentified medication, used a pair of scissors to cut out a pill, and forced the victim to swallow it before allowing her to get dressed.

When she demanded the promised Uber refund and transport cash to return home safely, the suspect became highly volatile, bitter, and aggressive.

He escorted her down to the ground floor, handed her just two Ksh.500 notes, and shouted at her to "fix herself" because the banks were closed, abandoning her as the lift doors opened.

While traveling home in an Uber she had to fund herself, the victim discovered that the suspect was systematically covering his tracks; he had already deleted all sent messages, blocked her phone number, and completely unmatched her profile on Tinder to eliminate any digital evidence.

The traumatized survivor has since sought emergency medical intervention, is currently on managed post-exposure medication, and formally reported the case at the Parklands Police Station on August 13.

Detectives are using this emerging evidence to build a tighter State case ahead of the August 31 court date, and the police are urgently appealing to any other women who may have fallen victim to similar digital manipulation and assault in the area to come forward immediately.
