A 29-year-old man who was arrested after being found in possession of fresh human body parts in Huruma, Nairobi, has claimed that they belonged to his 19-year-old wife.

In a statement on Wednesday, January 22, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) disclosed that the suspect, John Kiama Wambua, was apprehended by police after they noticed him suspiciously carrying a backpack.

"While making their final morning patrol around Kelly Towers in Huruma at around 5 am, Huruma Police Patrol team stopped the suspect, John Kiama Wambua, who suspiciously clung to the heavy backpack.

"With reasons to believe that Wambua could be ferrying or trafficking something illegal, the officers conducted a search, and to their shock discovered part of a mutilated human body. On quick interrogation, the suspect alleged that the same belonged to his wife, Joy Fridah Munani, 19," DCI stated.

The directorate explained that the suspect then led the officers to his house, where other body parts were retrieved from under his bed.

At the same time, DCI noted that a sharp knife believed to have been used in the incident was recovered alongside the victim's clothes, which were soaked in blood.

"In the single room with a bloody floor of which no scene could be more horrendous, the officers also recovered a sharp knife and the victim's clothes soaked in blood. Also established was that some body parts were still missing.

"The scene was processed by CSI detectives, who believe that the blood-stained knife was used to execute the heinous act," DCI explained.

The suspect is being processed to face murder charges as investigations on the motive behind the incident continue.
