Detectives are investigating Farida Peter Sangka’s death in Entarakuet, Kajiado County.
Detectives arrested the woman’s husband and a farmhand after recovering her body at their farm in Entarakuet, Isinya.
Detectives have arrested two men in a Kajiado murder investigation after finding a 34-year-old woman’s body in a shallow grave. The grave was at her family’s farm in Entarakuet, Isinya.
Police identified the woman as Farida Peter Sangka and her husband as Shon David Rabassa Kioko. Detectives suspect Kioko of killing his wife and burying her body on the farm.
The arrests followed a report by Ndayishimiye Deo, a Burundian national who worked at the property. Deo alleged that his employer had killed Sangka before instructing him to help dispose of her body.

Meanwhile, both men remain in custody as detectives work to establish the events leading to Sangka’s death. The forensic examination forms part of efforts to establish the circumstances surrounding her death.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations also expressed condolences to Sangka’s family and loved ones. It pledged to pursue justice as detectives continue their investigation.
