Detectives have arrested a suspect in connection with his 35-year-old brother’s death in Trans Nzoia County. 

The suspect, identified as Isaack Walumoli by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), got into a physical confrontation with his brother Nelson Wanundu on August 5 at Mbai Farm Village in Kiminini Sub-County after a disagreement. 

The following morning, Wanundu was rushed to Brown’s Hospital in Kiminini for medical attention but was later pronounced dead on arrival.  

The body is still at Kiminini Cottage Mission Hospital Mortuary pending autopsy.

DCI said Walumoli went into hiding after the incident, prompting detectives from DCI Kiminini to launch a manhunt for him.

He was tracked down in Kitale Town, where he was apprehended and is currently being held at Kiminini Police Station pending arraignment.
