Collins Jumaisi Khalusha Confessed to 42 murders and dumping them at the Nairobi dumping tip.
(The Post News) – A suspected serial killer, Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, was arrested on Monday at 3 a.m. after confessing to murdering 42 women, including his wife.
The suspect’s confession led the authorities to the discovery of several bodies. Since last week Friday, nine butchered bodies, amounting to nine, have been thrust up in plastic bags in a slum in Mukhuru, South Nairobi.
Mohammed Amin, who is the director of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), claims that he carried out these murders between 2022 and last Thursday.
“We are dealing with a serial killer, a psychopathic serial killer who has no respect for human life. We are dealing with a vampire, a psychopath,” expressed Amin.
The suspect stated that he lured his female victims, murdered them, and hid their bodies at a dumping site.
Sadly, his first victim was his wife, whom he strangled to death, dismembered her body, and buried in the same dumping site in Nairobi.
After an analysis of one of the victims of Khalusha, DCI made a joint operation with the national police, and while they were in operation, Amin stated that the suspect was in the process of luring another victim to kill.
Khalusha’s residence was just 100 metres away from where the victim’s bodies were found, and a few weapons were discovered in his one-room home, such as a rope, nylon sacks, a machete, and industrial rubber gloves.
Some female belongings were also found, including a pink handbag and underwear.
The autopsy analysis of the victims will start on Monday.
Amin, head of DCI, stated that another suspect, along with Khalusha, was found with one of the victim’s cellphones and was arrested.
The bodies that were discovered sparked widespread confusion among activists and the public, which questions the Kenyan Police as the dumping site is near a police station.
The Independent Police Oversight Authority, Kenya’s police watchdog, said that it would investigate if there had been any police connection with the bodies found at the Nairobi rubbish tip and if there was “failure to protect these grisly killings.”
This disturbing case has raised tensions over the weekend as people went through the pile of trash searching for more possible victims at the crime site.
All of Khalusha’s victims were between 18 and 30, and they were all killed in the same manner.
The suspects are still under interrogation by the police to figure out their motive for all the murders committed and are scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday, July 16.
