Police in Turbo, Uasin Gishu have arrested Eliud Kipchoge, a man believed to have beheaded his lover Sheila Jepkemboi.
The police have also recovered a head believed to be that of Ms Jepkemboi who was beheaded in a suspected love triangle on June 13, 2023, at Kibolo Village, Kaptebee Location.
According to a statement by the National Police Service (NPS), the missing head was recovered in Murgor village in the Sosian River.
The head was taken to the Kimbilio Funeral Home awaiting identification and autopsy.
“The headless body which was earlier recovered on the 13th of June 2023 is still lying at the same hospital morgue after the family members refused to hold burial rites without the head in line with the local traditions,” NPS said.
The suspect is in police custody awaiting arraignment.
