Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have arrested a man believed to be behind the disappearance of two children in Shauri Moyo, Nairobi.
According to the DCI, the 20-year-old Mastern Milimu Wanjala admitted to having kidnapped the two and executed them in cold blood.
Milimu said he murdered the two children namely Charles Opindo Bala, aged 13, and Junior Mutuku Musyoki, 12.
Opindo and Musyoki disappeared on June 30 and July 7 respectively.
Opindo, who was a pupil at Sagaret Primary School in Majengo, was kidnapped on his way from the school on the fateful day.
DCI says the suspect led detectives to where he committed the two murders and disposed off their bodies in Kabete.
After kidnapping Musyoki, Milimu asked her mother Felista Wayua to send him a Ksh50,00 ransom to secure her son’s freedom.
The suspect, on the other hand, demanded Ksh30,00 from Opindo’s father, Tony Opindo.
Detectives are currently interrogating the suspect to establish the possibility of him having kidnapped and murdered several other kids.
