This is a report on the status of the investigation into the killing of a minor, Ms Stacy Nyakio Kinyua, and Mr Peter Karima, as well as the robbery with violence attack on Mbogo’s family. On 4th January 2025, at around 2.30 p.m., the area Assistant Chief, Mr Gerald Nyaga, reported that he had received information from Ms Eva Wangechi, who is the victim, regarding Stacy's disappearance. She was a Grade Seven pupil at Kaitheri Primary School. She went missing at approximately 11 a.m. on the same day. During the search, the victim's body was discovered lifeless in a shallow hole within a coffee plantation located about four kilometres from their home. Upon visiting the scene, the officers from Kirinyaga Police Station established that the deceased was half naked with trousers and underpants found beside her body, indicating that she had been defiled and killed. The murder report was booked under Occurrence Book (OB) No. 29 of April 0125 at Kerugoya Police Station. The body was transported to Kerugoya Hospital Morgue, where a post-mortem examination confirmed that the cause of death was hypoxia due to secondary suffocation and strangulation following an assault. A file No. 22105 of 2025 was opened with respect to the incident. The forensic evidence, including swabs and fingernail samples, was collected and forwarded to the government chemist for further analysis.
