Prime Suspect Arrested

On Friday, Police in Eldoret arrested the prime suspect in the murder of LGBTQ activist and model Edwin Kiprotich Kiptoo alias Chiloba.

The suspect was identified as Jacktone Odhiambo, a Nairobi-based freelance photographer who is a longtime friend of the deceased.

Police are now looking for two suspects believed to have helped load Chiloba's body in a metal box before it was dumped at Halingham near Kipkaren.

Kimulwo said that after investigations, the deceased appeared to have been strangled and one eye gouged out.

Uasin Gishu county DCI boss Peter Kimulwo said the motive of the killing remains unknown.

The late lived within the Kimumu area and police followed up on a certain plot where they interrogated tenants who confirmed he lived in room No 11 near Noble Bliss Plaza. The deceased was living with two others.

Kimulwo said on new year's eve, Chiloba and friends went to the Tamasha club and came back at around 3 am.

When they arrived, neighbours heard commotion and cries which subsided.

The neighbours did not follow up and the deceased was not seen but on January 3, 2023, neighbours saw a vehicle with two people loading a metal box into the vehicle and left.

Neighbours said they also smelled some foul stench from the house.

"We suspect the noise heard earlier by the neighbours was the time the deceased was killed," Kimulwo said.
