Describing him as a psychopath, the officers trailed him to Kayole where he lives and was in the process of luring another victim despite the outrage over the discovery of the badly mutilated bodies he had dumped in Kware.
Sources said a raid on the suspect’s house led to the recovery of ten mobile phones, seven identity cards, ten sim cards, a panga, gloves, and several sacks similar to those found with bodies at the dump site and ropes.
Reports indicate that the suspect had also withdrawn money from from the latest victim of the murder where the DCI used it as a trail to arrest the suspect that is now in custody.
