Investigations Ordered into a Series of Murders and Suspicious Deaths - December 2025

A Kenyan court has ordered the exhumation of Safiya Hussein Bilal's remains for a fresh autopsy, seeking crucial forensic evidence in the investigation into her alleged defilement and murder. In a separate case, the mother of recently deceased gospel artist Betty Bayo, Joyce Wairimu Mbugua, has filed a petition with the ODPP seeking an inquest into her daughter's "mysterious death." Mbugua alleges an "evil hand" and that the burial was rushed, despite reports linking Bayo's death to acute leukaemia. Meanwhile, detectives are investigating the homicide of 12-year-old Patience Mumbe, who was found murdered on Saturday, December 6, in Nairobi's Embakasi KAA estate. CCTV footage has revealed the child's last moments before the brutal attack.
