Sunday, August 11, 2024 - Detectives have launched an investigation into the brutal murder of Florence Mueni Mwalimu, a 34-year-old banker who was murdered and her body dumped in a maize plantation.
Mueni’s body was found a day after she was reported missing.
Her ears and right thumb were missing
Until her death, the deceased was working at the Personal Banking
Department at the Cooperative Bank branch in Nakuru.
A detective involved in investigations said her thumb may
have been chopped off in a bid to conduct illegal activities at the bank.
On the day she went missing, she asked for permission to go
home and rush her child to hospital.
Having secured permission to go home, she packed her
belongings and left.
That was the last time she was seen alive.
Her family got worried after she failed to return home in
the evening.
They tried to reach her on the phone but it was switched off.
The family members reported the matter to the police.
Her whereabouts remained unknown until the following
afternoon when a boy who was hunting birds reportedly stumbled on her lifeless
body that had deep stab wounds.
“The scene was undisturbed. There were no blood stains, meaning that the killing must have taken place elsewhere.
"There are signs of a vehicle having been used to ferry the body
there,” Rongai Directorate of Criminal Investigation boss Donnata Otieno said.
Her husband said she had not expressed any fears about her life.
