A 25-year-old university student in Kenya, Abdulkarim Njoroge, has been arrested for allegedly killing his lover, Irene Kananu after she threatened to dump him for impregnating another woman.
The Star reports that Njoroge strangled Kananu in his house in Mtwapa region in Mombasa following the argument and hid her body in a refrigerator.
The suspect was arrested two weeks after the family of the deceased, an HR officer with chemical giant Henkel in Industrial Area, declared her missing on March 31.
The victim’s body was found naked with her head, inside the refrigerator while her legs and hips were sticking out.
The pair reportedly fought after Kananu learned that Njoroge had impregnated his secret lover who is his neighbour living in the same block of flats with him.
The victim’s sister, Catherine Nduta, reported her missing on April 3 at Githurai Kimbo police station, after trying to get her on phone several times to no avail.
Police opened investigations and two days later, investigators broke into Kananu’s house where they found Kananu dead.
After the murder, Njoroge reportedly stole her car and withdrew Sh40,000 from Kananu’s M-Pesa account
