DCI Unearths Police Officers' Role in Victoria Nthunya Mutiso Murder

• Three police officers have been implicated in Dr Victoria Nthunya Mutiso's murder, with one allegedly supplying the murder weapon and another pulling the trigger. One officer has been arrested, and two are currently on the run.
• The motive behind the murder appears to be a long-running land dispute over property in Mlolongo, pending before the Environment and Land Court in Machakos.
• Rose Mbithe Mulwa and her son Christopher Mulwa are being held as alleged financiers and organizers of the murder.

The involvement of these rogue officers represents a grave betrayal of the uniform and the public trust.

The investigation into Dr Victoria Nthunya Mutiso's murder has revealed a shocking web of deceit and betrayal involving three police officers, one of whom has been arrested and two are currently on the run. At the center of this conspiracy is Inspector Kenneth Kipkemboi Sang, who is currently on the run and allegedly coordinated the operation by linking financiers to the execution team and providing the firearm used in the murder. This brazen act of treachery has left many questioning the integrity of the police force. The DCI's Director, Mohamed Amin, has vowed to pursue those implicated with 'the full force of the law'.

The motive behind Dr Mutiso's murder appears to be a long-running land dispute over property in Mlolongo. The case was pending before the Environment and Land Court in Machakos, with Dr Mutiso having lodged a caveat over the land. Evidence suggests that Rose Mbithe Mulwa, formerly married to Dr Mutiso's husband, Prof David Musyimi Ndetei, and her son Christopher Mulwa were involved in financing and organizing the murder. The two are currently being held pending completion of investigations.

Dr Mutiso was not the only target of this group's violence. Investigators have discovered that she had survived an earlier assassination attempt on July 7 along Ngong Road, when two men riding a motorcycle allegedly pointed a firearm at her. This incident raises questions about the extent to which these individuals were willing to go to achieve their goals. The DCI is also exploring possible links between those implicated in Dr Mutiso's murder and the 2025 drive-by killing of lawyer Kyalo Mbobu.

Lawyers advising clients on land disputes or dealing with the Environment and Land Court should be aware of the potential for violence and intimidation in such cases, and ensure their clients take necessary security measures to protect themselves and their interests.
