Main Story
Police Inspector Faces Murder Charge
Inspector Kenneth Kipkemboi Sang has been arraigned in court over the killing of Dr Victoria Mutiso, who was murdered in Nairobi on July 29, 2026.
Sang is facing a murder charge under Sections 203 and 204 of the Penal Code, which provide for the offence of murder and its punishment.
According to the particulars presented in court, the alleged offence took place at approximately 9:30am along Mawensi Road, within Kilimani Sub-County, Nairobi County.
The charge states that Sang allegedly acted alongside other individuals who have not yet been brought before the court.
Accused Denies the Allegations
The inspector appeared before Justice Alexander Muteti to answer the charge.
He pleaded not guilty, meaning the prosecution will be required to present evidence to prove the allegations against him through the court process.
The charge remains an allegation, and Sang is presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
Court Sets Next Mention Date
During the proceedings, a probation officer was granted 21 days to prepare a probation report.
The matter is scheduled to return to court for mention on November 30, 2026, when further directions are expected.
Murder Investigation Continues
Dr Mutiso’s killing has attracted public attention, with several individuals previously facing court proceedings in connection with the case.
The latest charge against Sang adds another development to the investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death.
As the case progresses, the court will be expected to consider the evidence presented and establish the responsibility, if any, of each person accused.
As the case heads back to court, the central question remains: what will the evidence reveal about the events that led to Dr Mutiso’s death?
