The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) is under scrutiny for failing to act on a DCI report recommending murder charges against Kennedy Kalombotole in connection with the February 6, 2025, killing of Gilbert Kinyua Muthoni at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH). This inaction preceded a second murder at the same hospital 17 days later, raising questions about whether the second death could have been prevented.

• The DCI report, submitted on June 30, 2025, concluded that Kalombotole, the victim's roommate, should be charged.
• The report details evidence including blood trails leading to Kalombotole's bed and human bloodstains on his sandals.
• A second victim, Edward Maingi Ndegwa, was found murdered in a similar manner, with his throat slit.
• Kennedy Kalombotole has since been arraigned and ordered by Justice Kavedza to undergo a mental assessment at Mbagathi Hospital, with strict instructions regarding his diabetic care.
