Residents of Mwiki Phase 3 are mourning and in deep shock after the horrifying rape and murder of 18-year-old Abigael Wina Wanjiku.
The brutal attack happened on Thursday night, shaking the quiet neighborhood to its core.
Abigael, a bright and hopeful young woman, had her whole life ahead of her. She was discovered lifeless in what police have described as one of the most disturbing killings the area has seen in years. Her death has left the community heartbroken and terrified.
According to the Kasarani Sub-county Criminal Investigations Officer, Abigael had been stabbed five times in the stomach and once in the neck. She also had serious head injuries, which investigators believe may have been caused by a metal cooking pan found at the scene.
The police suspect that the attacker used the pan to hit her on the head, possibly knocking her unconscious before stabbing her to death. The level of violence in the attack has left many residents scared and angry.
Detectives recovered two important pieces of evidence from the scene: a kitchen knife covered in blood, believed to be the murder weapon, and the metal cooking pan suspected to have been used in the assault.
Early investigations suggest that Abigael was also sexually assaulted before being killed, which has made the crime even more horrifying to the community. The mix of sexual violence and brutal murder has left people speechless and full of grief.
“It’s heartbreaking,” one resident said, trying to hold back tears. “Abigael was just a girl. No one deserves to die like that.”
This was a common feeling shared by many in the neighborhood. The crime has caused fear, especially among young women and girls who now feel unsafe walking alone. Parents are also worried about their children’s safety, and many are calling for more police patrols and better street lighting in the area.
The police have started a serious investigation and say they are working around the clock to catch the person behind this cruel act. At the time of reporting, no arrests had been made, but forensic experts are now examining the knife and cooking pan for fingerprints and any other DNA clues. Authorities have assured the public that they will not rest until justice is served.
Meanwhile, Abigael’s family is in deep pain, struggling to accept the sudden and violent loss of their daughter.
Friends, neighbors, and relatives have been visiting their home, offering support and prayers. The entire community is mourning a life taken too soon and demanding justice for Abigael.
