Bungoma preacher arrested after human body parts were found in his car

Officers from Webuye East said that the body parts were found stashed in a carton by car wash attendants in in Bungoma's Masikhu market.

The suspect identified as Levis Simiyu, is said to be a pastor at a local church in Ndivisi.

An attendant was cleaning the boot only for him to notice a protruding human leg, partly burnt and resting atop other parts.  

"The young man abandoned his duty ready to retire early, until the petrol station manager took a gaze at the creepy box," police said.

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) added that police were later called to the scene.

"She (the manager) immediately informed the police at Webuye station, who arrived in time before the car owner could drive off.

The body parts have been taken to Webuye Hospital morgue for further analysis.
