The Directorate of Criminal Investigations have exposed the details of a man believed to be the prime suspect in the murder of a woman in Thika.
In a statement issued on Thursday evening, the DCI urged the public to volunteer details that would aid in the arrest of the suspect identified as Ken Kimathi Gichunuku alias Sultan.
Kimathi is believed to be behind the killing of Seth Nyakio Njeri, whose body was found at her friend's house at Biafra Estate within Thika township on October 10, 2024.
According to the DCI, Kimathi went into hiding after the incident, with homicide detectives embarking on hunting him down.
"Notably, Gichunuku has a criminal record of threatening to kill as evidenced in a September 25, 2024 court case, and detectives are considering him dangerous to anyone he deems might expose him," wrote the DCI.
Anyone with details on the suspects has been urged to call the DCI's toll free hotline or report to the nearest police station.
