Trans Nzoia Governor George Natembeya has expressed significant concerns over the police investigation into the ‘Mukuru Quarry’ murders, in which suspected serial killer Collins Jumaisi is accused. Natembeya, a former Rift Valley Regional Commissioner, raised three critical questions regarding the thoroughness and accuracy of the investigation.

Firstly, Governor Natembeya argued that the police investigation lacked thoroughness, suggesting that Jumaisi might have been hastily arrested to alleviate pressure on the police. He found it implausible that Jumaisi, who allegedly confessed to killing 42 women, could have acted entirely alone. Natembeya pointed out the logistical challenges of a single person managing such crimes without assistance, particularly in terms of moving the bodies without attracting attention.

“How could a young man carry out these murders alone, especially when the bodies were being retrieved from a quarry? It’s hard to believe that he managed to cut up and carry a 100-kilogram body by himself without anyone noticing,” Natembeya remarked.

Secondly, Natembeya questioned why no screams were heard during the murders, suggesting that the DCI’s investigation might have been rushed. He emphasized the improbability of such violent acts occurring without drawing any attention.

“Didn’t the victims scream? Who is this man protecting? It seems lazy to conclude the case just because the suspect claims he acted alone,” Natembeya posed.

Lastly, the governor expressed concern over the apparent lack of prior knowledge from intelligence operatives and the local security team. He stressed that senior officers in the area should be held accountable, as their primary duty is to protect lives and property.

The governor’s pointed questions highlight potential flaws in the investigation and suggest the need for a more detailed and transparent inquiry into the ‘Mukuru Quarry’ murders.
