These incidents include deletion of history on the Sergeant's phone, sending large sums of money to his relatives as well as the absence of blood at the apartment where his body was found.

"Everything was well planned to appear like suicide. Sending money to his family, leaving behind a suicide note and so forth but it’s a clear case of murder," the detective stated.

Key witness in arms deal scandal

Kenei is reported to have been one of the key witnesses in the arms trade scandal around former Sports CS Rashid Echesa.
