The preliminary investigations conducted by homicide detectives from the DCI hinted at serial criminal activities that are not linked to the recent abductions coming at the peak of anti-government protests.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) boss, Mohamed Amin on Sunday, July 14 revealed that his agency probing the mystery of the Kware dumpsite bodies recovery had explored three possible angles; either instances of cults, serial killers or rogue medical practitioners.
The preliminary investigations conducted by homicide detectives from the DCI hinted at serial criminal activities that are not linked to the recent abductions coming at the peak of anti-government protests.
“Are we dealing with a cult that is associated with criminal activities? Are we dealing with serial killers that are also associated with criminal activities?
“Or even, could we be dealing with rogue medical practitioners who are dealing with criminal activities? All these are hypotheses we have tried to bring on board,” Amin remarked while speaking during a press briefing.

In his message to members of the public, as the detectives continue to investigate the matter, the DCI boss also lamented a hostile environment and backlash meted on the officers by Kenyans during the retrieval of the bodies from the dumpsite, which also serves as an abandoned quarry.
“It is sad to note that my investigations team faced a lot of hostility from the members of the public in terms of accessing the crime scene,” he added.
