On May 31, 2020, a gruesome discovery was made at Tumaini Primary School in Umoja Two, Nairobi, where a woman's body was found hidden in a sack inside the school compound.

Further investigation revealed that other body parts were dismembered and disposed of in different locations within the city.

Police also found other items at the scene, including bed sheets, a mosquito net, and clothes.

According to Buruburu Sub County police boss Adamsom Bungei, investigations into the murder are ongoing.

“The culprits behind this should just surrender to the police because they can run but won’t hide forever,” he said.

Police suspect that the woman was murdered elsewhere and her body dumped inside the school compound.

It is believed that the crime was most likely committed after the 7pm curfew deadline.

Anyone with information about the woman or her family is asked to report to the detectives at DCI Buruburu for further action and DNA sampling.
