DCI Announces The Arrest Of 2 KDF Officers On Connection To The Murder Of Mercy Kwamboka

The DCI has announced the arrest of two KDF officers in connection to the murder of University of Nairobi’s Mercy Kwamboka, whose body was found dumped in Mwiki.

The suspects, Joseph Ngera Kamau and Fred Mathenge Kanja, both Kenya Army officers based in Embakasi, were the last known individuals to have been in contact with Mercy.

Investigations revealed that Mercy was reported missing from her parents’ home in Pipeline, Embakasi, on September 28, 2024 only for her lifeless body to be discovered partially undressed and bearing bruises on her thighs, lower back, and left ankle with a black blouse, a blanket, and a mobile phone found beside her.

It was further established that on that fateful night, Joseph Ngera picked up Mercy from her home in a motor vehicle Reg. No. Mazda, KDA 796L, and proceeded to his house in Komarock.

While at the parking lot, a misunderstanding ensued, leading to a confrontation in which Kamau assaulted Mercy, resulting in her death. Kamau then called his accomplice, Kanja, to help him dispose of the body.

Following forensic trails, detectives flushed Kamau and Kanja out of their hideouts in Komarock Estate and Tononoka area in Embakasi, respectively.

The duo is currently detained at Kasarani Police Station, undergoing processing to be arraigned today Thursday, October 24, 2024.

Rest in Peace Mercy.
