It remains unclear how Wanjala managed to escaped from Police custody, where he was under tight security.
In September, Masten Wanjala led a team of homicide detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) to a home in Bungoma County where he claimed to have buried some of his victims after killing them.
On September 4th, detectives concluded the re-enactment of four murder scenes where Wanjala led them in Bungoma county. He also led detectives to two murder scenes in Machakos county, five in Nairobi and two in Kajiado.
Wanjala, who is said to have killed at least 13 people so far, also confessed to have sodomised and sucked the blood of his victims.
