STABBED MAN DISCOVERED IN THE ROOM WHERE A WOMAN FELL TO DEATH
The room she stayed in, which doubled as a short-term lodging, was locked when police got on the scene.
A 33-year-old guy who was found in a room in the Thome district of Kasarani, Nairobi, with stab wounds is being held by detectives. The woman, 20, had been there before she plummeted to her death.
On Saturday, Joan Mbula's body was discovered on the ground level of the residence where she had spent the night before. She was twenty years old.
When the victim from the White House flats fell from the tenth floor, she was only wearing a red t-shirt and was partly naked.
Authorities added that it is unclear if she committed suicide, ran away, or was shoved out of the room.
The room she stayed in, which doubled as a short-term lodging, was locked when police got on the scene.
The room's owner showed up with a spare once the crew made contact with him.
They discovered a man with stab wounds who was unconscious and lying on the ground.
The crew rushed Lawrence Gitonga, who was identified, to the hospital under guard as he began to bleed heavily.
Mbula stabbed him, he informed the police.
There was a conflict going on because the atmosphere appeared uneasy.
Before she went off the house's balcony, neighbors reported to the police that they heard the woman yelling for assistance.
The DCI investigators interviewed unit management and occupants and went through the evidence for most of Saturday morning.
Bloodstained bed linens and splashed blood on the bathroom walls and floor are among the images from the house that the police are using to piece together what happened.
Nine stab wounds are being treated by Gitonga.
They speculate that after being stabbed, the victim may have taken cover in the restroom.
Investigators are eager to learn what happened that resulted in the woman's death.
Police reported that there were no wounds on the dead.
To learn how she passed away, a postmortem examination is scheduled.
