Following the public inquest proceedings into the death of Agnes Wanjiku Wanjiru, whose body was found in a septic tank at the Lions Court Hotel in Nanyuki, two months after she disappeared in March 2012, the presiding Principal Magistrate Njeri Thuku, found on November 5, 2019, 
that indeed there was an offence committed. Wanjiru is alleged to have been killed by a British soldier. The Inquiry file was thereafter forwarded to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations to tighten the case in order to nail the suspect behind the murder most foul.
Immediately after receiving the file, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations established contact with the U.K government regarding the case. The Director, DCI also requested for joint investigations into the killing, noting that the British officers were back in the U.K.
So far, the Officer Commanding Major Inquiry Team and Major Incident Room, Special Investigations Branch Regiment, Royal Military Police of the United Kingdom has been collaborating very well with DCI’s Homicide experts, regarding investigations into the case.
As a result, detectives from DCI Homicide division are expected to travel to the U.K soon to gather all the necessary information and evidence as by law established, so as to tighten our case before narrowing to the main suspect(s) guided by the facts.
In view of the foregoing, Brigadier Ronnie Westerman, the defence advisor to the British High Commission, paid a visit to the Director DCI George Kinoti this afternoon, to lay the groundwork for the next phase of joint investigations.
Also present during the meeting was a representative from the British National Crime Agency, Waqar Qureshi, and DCI’s Homicide director Martin Nyuguto.
