A Kenyan High Court has issued an arrest warrant for a British national suspected of murdering a 21-year-old woman more than a decade ago. Agnes Wanjiru was killed in March 2012, and her body was later discovered in a septic tank at a hotel in Nanyuki, nearly three months after she had allegedly spent an evening partying with British soldiers. Justice Alexander Muteti stated that prosecutors had provided sufficient evidence to request the suspect's appearance before a Kenyan court for trial. Kamau Mbiu, the lawyer representing Ms. Wanjiru's family, welcomed the ruling as a crucial step toward securing justice, expressing optimism regarding the extradition process from the UK. However, he emphasized the need for transparency, given the public interest in the case. The judge directed that the identities of the accused and witnesses remain confidential to protect the trial's integrity. A UK government representative expressed condolences and reaffirmed their commitment to aiding the Wanjiru family in achieving justice. The Ministry of Defence in the UK has stated they are cooperating with Kenyan authorities regarding the investigation, which has caused significant public outrage. Wanjiru's family has been fighting for justice since her murder, which left her five-month-old baby without a mother. Esther Njoki, Wanjiru's niece, referred to the arrest warrant as a 'bitter-sweet moment' due to the potential delays in the extradition process. The prosecution confidently stated that witnesses currently located in the UK would be available for the trial, ensuring its continuation.
