Who killed these girls? 21-year-old found poisoned at a lodging; 27-year-old banker found dead with stab wounds

The deaths of Diana Mumbi and Jacinta Achieng remain a mystery even to the police. The two girls disappeared before they were discovered dead.

Diana Mumbi was missing for a month before she was found dead. Her family reported her missing in November and even launched social media campaign to trace her.

Diana’s body was found at Kenyatta National Hospital mortuary on Saturday December 16th. Mortuary attendants told the family that the body was discovered poisoned at a lodging in Eastleigh, Nairobi and was booked into the morgue by an unknown person on November 29th.

Diana disappeared when she left her sister’s house in Nakuru to return to Nairobi on November 18th. She left saying she was returning to campus at Multimedia University where she was a first-year journalism student.

She was well behaved

Diana’s sister Doris say the deceased had been having lengthy telephone conversations during her stay in Nakuru. Doris says her sister never told her whom she was talking to.

Diana’s father Peter Mwangi however asserts that her daughter was well behaved. He says the deceased didn’t have incidents of indiscipline.

“She was very well behaved and we did not have incidents of indiscipline with her. We never heard of anything to do with bad behaviour in as far as she was concerned,” said Peter Mwangi.

CFC Stanbic Bank employee murdered

27-year-old Jacinta Achieng was found dead only a week after she was promoted at work. The deceased was an employee at CFC Stanbic Bank in Nakuru.

Jacinta failed to show up at work on Friday November 24th sparking worry among her colleagues. The previous night several text messages were sent from her phone to her workmates telling them that she had been admitted to hospital.

A decision was made to involve the police who gained access into the house by breaking the door. This was after both her workmates and family failed to trace her.

She was murdered in cold blood

Jacinta’s lifeless body was found lying in a pool of blood in her house. The deceased had multiple stab wounds all over her body.

“Whoever did it tried to burn down the house with her inside, in fact, the carpet was set on fire but the fire died,” Wycliffe Olwal, Jacinta’s brother-in-law said.
