A serial killer who specializes in murdering minors is on the loose as he escapes from police custody.

The suspect was being detained at the Jogoo Road Police Station in Nairobi and has reportedly fled police custody on Tuesday, October 12.

The self-confessed child serial murderer identified as Masten Milimo Wanjala, was responsible for the deaths of 13 kids in Kenya.

On Wednesday, October 13, the suspect was scheduled to appear in the Makadara Law Courts to face 13 charges of murder.

It is unknown how the murderer escaped from detention; nevertheless, a police signal has been sent requesting officers in the capital city and its surrounding counties to be on high alert.

Wanjala was apprehended on Wednesday, July 14, 2021, following the discovery of two bodies dumped near Nairobi, Kenya’s capital.

In a five-year killing spree, he admitted to murdering ten children and drinking their blood.

Detectives revealed last month that the serial killer had slain four kids in Bungoma, increasing his total number of victims to 13.

Detectives were led to two murder locations in Machakos county, five in Nairobi, and two in Kajiado by the suspect.

This is also a warning/ alert. The murderer is out there somewhere and he is dangerous. Stay safe and alert the police if you suspect a dangerous/suspicious movement within your environment.
