The Kenya Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has confirmed that a long-standing land dispute was the motive behind the killing of Dr Victoria Mutiso, a mental health expert, in Nairobi. The DCI stated that the incident occurred at Upper Hill, and a thorough analysis of the evidence has identified Police Constable Elijah Kibelion as the officer allegedly responsible for the fatal shots (eastleighvoice.co.ke).
Dr Mutiso, who was working at the Aga Khan University, was found dead in her home on April 16. The DCI has now officially named Kibelion as the suspect, marking a significant development in the case. Meanwhile, prominent politician Rigathi Gachagua has denied any involvement, challenging detectives to visit his home in Wamunyoro for further inquiry (tuko.co.ke).
The case has sparked public concern over police conduct and accountability. The DCI has not yet released further details on the land dispute or the circumstances leading to the confrontation. Investigations are ongoing, with authorities emphasizing the seriousness of the incident and the need for justice.
