In a significant breakthrough in the investigation into the tragic murder of Eric Maigo, the Finance Director of Nairobi Hospital, the prime suspect has been taken into custody.

Detectives working on the case have determined that the key suspect is a 16-year-old juvenile. Last night, a successful operation led to her arrest at Olympic Village, located within the sprawling Kibera slums. The arrest followed a tip received by investigators through the #FichuakwaDCI hotline.

Following her apprehension, the teenager was swiftly transported to the headquarters of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) for questioning. Subsequently, she was officially booked at Muthaiga police station.

The breakthrough came after close scrutiny of CCTV footage obtained by crime scene detectives near the location of the murder. The footage revealed the suspect scaling perimeter walls, prompting an extensive manhunt that spanned across the city.

Eric Maigo's lifeless body was discovered in a pool of blood on September 15th, bearing 25 stab wounds. As of now, investigators are still working to ascertain the motive behind this brutal murder.

The law enforcement agencies extend their gratitude to the vigilant member of the public who promptly alerted our officers to the suspect's whereabouts, leading to her immediate arrest.
