Foreigner Arrested For Stabbing Ex-Boyfriend To Death In Juja
Police have detained a lady accused of murdering her 23-year-old ex-lover in Juja, Kiambu County.
The woman allegedly stabbed her ex-lover seven times at Mastore Estate in Juja before fleeing to avoid arrest.
The deceased was discovered on Monday, January 20, with multiple stab wounds.
Officers who reacted to the site and removed the body initiated an investigation, which led to the arrest of the suspect, a Ugandan national and the deceased’s former boyfriend.
During the arrest, blood was discovered at the suspect’s home. She allegedly threatened the dead several times previously.
Area police chief Jackson Sang confirmed the occurrence, saying that investigations are underway to discover what caused the 23-year-old’s death.
“I want to confirm that one young man of 23 years, by the name Peter Macharia, was stabbed several times by a lady friend,” he said.
