After four months on the run, a man suspected of murdering two individuals during a confrontation at Kibuye market in Kisumu County has been apprehended.
Oliver Ochieng Jaoko, commonly referred to as Olivert, allegedly killed Evans Opiyo and Mohammed Saleh on July 1, 2024, following a dispute over the management of earnings from five washrooms at the market.
“Following this horrific incident, Ochieng disappeared from view, eluding authorities,” the Directorate of Criminal Investigations reported in a statement on Tuesday.
“A manhunt was initiated, and following a tip-off, authorities located him at his hideout in the Manyatta region and took him into custody.”
