A suspect in the death of a 19-year-old in Thome Estate will be held in police custody for 14 days as the investigation continues.

The prosecution asked the Makadara Law Courts, where Lawrence Gitonga was arraigned on Thursday, for more time to complete the murder investigations.

According to detectives working on the case, Gitonga was arrested on March 2 after the caretaker in the Kivulini area of Kasarani reported the body of a female adult found lying near the White House apartment.

The victim was later identified as Juanta Mbulwa Nzomo.

Officers who responded to the scene suspected the woman had been thrown from the tenth floor of the flat where she had booked a room with the suspect.

On visiting the said apartment, they found the suspect inside with multiple stab wounds.

The house itself, they said, was in complete disarray with blood splattered all over.

The suspect was taken to Uhai Neema Hospital for first aid before being referred to Kenyatta National Hospital for further treatment.

He was released from the hospital on March 6 in stable condition and taken to the Kasarani police station, where he was detained.

CCTV footage obtained exclusively by Citizen TV captured the final moments of the two checking into the flat at around 3 a.m. Saturday after a night of partying, before the girl was discovered dead in a t-shirt.

In the footage, Lawrence Gitonga is seen leaving the lift on the 10th floor while holding the hand of the 19-year-old girl.
