The murder of two indian campaign personnel that were linked to Ruto’s campaign strategy team has found a new trajectory after the detective revealed new information that will help with the case
The detective revealed details of a text message one of the suspects sent his colleague from the defunct Special Service Unit (SSU) after the incident.
Through a witness testimony in Kahawa Law courts, the witness revealed one of the suspects inquired from his colleague whether he needed to revisit the crime scene to clear it.

The detective claims that further analysis of the phones revealed that the suspect got a response text informing him that another officer had already cleared the scene.
“The witness said that between July 20 and August 11, 2023, the investigating team analysed and went through the phone extraction report and established from one of the exhibits- a mobile phone belonging to (Officer A) – a communication in one of the chats between him and (Officer B) on October 16, 2022, at 3:57 pm.”
The crime scene that was being referenced is the Aberdares National Park where it is believed that the bodies of the Indians, allegedly killed in July 2022, were dumped
“Officer B enquired from Officer A about re-visiting the scene to clear it and there was a reply by Officer A that ‘Officer C alienda’ referring to one of the accused persons.”
Detectives in the case also revealed to the court that the vehicles suspected to have been used in the murder were tracked to have been at the national park minutes after the official closure.

It was however noted that the vehicle’s details were not recorded at the gate with suspicion that the suspects may have been in collaboration with officers manning the park.
The SSU officers allegedly abducted the two Indians, Mohammed Zaid Sami and Zulfiqar Ahmed Khan alongside their taxi driver Nicodemus Mwania Mwange weeks before the 2022 polls.
