Kenyan Man Accused of Killing Girlfriend in Massachusetts  Escapes from Police Cell in Kenya
Kevin Kangethe, Wanted for Murder of His Girlfriend Margaret Mbitu

Kevin Adam Kinyanjui Kangethe, a key suspect in a murder case in the United States, has managed to elude the police at Muthaiga Police Station.

Kangethe, 40, who was awaiting extradition on a charge of first-degree murder, disappeared without a trace after meeting with his lawyer on Wednesday evening.
In a clever twist of events, an individual pretending to be Kangethe’s legal representative was allowed to visit the suspect and asked for a private conversation. The individual identified as John Maina Ndegwa was granted permission to meet Kangethe alone.

Just moments later, Kangethe made a quick escape, leaving Ndegwa behind. Nairobi Police Chief Adamson Bungei acted swiftly to address this embarrassing situation, and as a result, four officers and Ndegwa were promptly apprehended. Kangethe is accused of murdering Margaret Mbitu in Massachusetts on October 31, 2023.

After committing the crime, he fled to Kenya. On January 31, 2024, the US embassy in Kenya confirmed his arrest and commended the collaboration between Kenyan authorities in capturing the fugitive. Having been issued an Interpol Red Notice, Kangethe appeared in court on February 1, where he awaited the commencement of extradition proceedings. The victim was discovered dead in a car at an airport parking lot.

Maggie is survived by her parents Rose and Harun along with her siblings Ann and Bernard, as well as many cousins, aunts, and uncles. She became an American citizen by naturalization and completed her studies at Quincy College in 2018. Maggie dedicated her time to serving at Bamsi, a non-profit organization.

  1. THEY NEED TO ISSUE A REWARD…
    THEY NEED TO ISSUE A REWARD AND EVEN HIS OWN MOTHER WILL TURN THIS GOON IN. HE IS A COWARD AND NEEDS TO GET OFF THE STREETS. BEFORE HE COMMITTS ANOTHER HEINOUS ACT. WHAT A SHAME FOR THE KENYAN POLICE FORCE.

  2. Shame on the Kenyan police…
    Shame on the Kenyan police after a regular citizen did his civic duty and outed this murderer .How much was the bribe and whoever pocketed that hongo needs to be named and humiliated publicly put yourself in the victim’s family shoes .For real this Kenyan police are a joke and they are being called upon to restore order in Haiti you cannot even handle one thug try hundreds who have nothing to loose.You will be killed like flies.

  3. They ignored my suggestion…
    They ignored my suggestion of immediate extradition after arrest,yaani,without the usual lengthy corrupt judicial process.I propose the FBI accompany the Kenyan thug police and arrest or kill Kang’ethe themselves.Or just assign the job to some(not all)Kenyan men ready who are ready to guard/defend their sisters(including TOTO & IPhone 4G).They will also have a small conversation with him.

  4. Kisa kinachonifanya moyo…
    Kisa kinachonifanya moyo wangu udunda dunde. Ikawaje huyu muuwaji kuponyoka katika kituo cha polisi? Ni ulaji rushwa tu. Mawakiri wa Kenya wanatoa ushuzi kwa kutoa ufundo wa uraji mlungura bila kujari maslahi ya wanaomboleza binti yao. Na mahakama na mahakimu wa Kenya ndio kiini hasa kwa masaibu ya nchi yetu. Unapeleka kesi yako kortini halafu wakiri wanashirikiana na kiongozi wa mashataka kumkoroga hakimu na kiinua mgongo kinono. Kesi yako inandundishwa chini kama mpira wa kadanda kisha fiuuu, inatupiliwa mbali. Cha kuniliwaza ni kwamba, hata Kang’ethe akitoroka aje, mwishowe ataelekezwa Marekani kujibu mashtaka yanayomhusu. Angelihukumiwa Kenya, bila shaka mgelijionea wazazi wa Mbitu wakiponyokwa na haki kwa mtoto wao. Najua Kang’ethe wakati huu anafuatwa ana kwa ana na kundi la polisi ikishilikiana na FBI. You can run hommy, but you cannot hide. The best you can do is go jump over the cliff, because ukipatwa hutajinusuru. Utasafirishwa hadi Marekani pap!

  5. I HOPE AS SOON AS THEY…
    I HOPE AS SOON AS THEY CAPTURE HIM THEY CAN SQUEEZE HIS SMALL ONIONS FIRST BEFORE EXTRADITING HIM .

    What is most idiotic is the fact that the dude is still carrying along an activated phone line while on the run! Ni mjinga aje?

    KENYA’S CORRUPTION @ IT’S FINEST!!!

    Corruption at it’s best.
    But what do we expect being Kenyans?

  8. International shame! These…
    International shame! These are the crap we want to take to Haiti? The best things our police know how to do with perfection are: 1. collect bribes and 2. throw teargas at honest demonstrators.

  9. All these unpardonable…
    All these unpardonable events are happening in a country without a president.
    The current fake president is loitering around in Kenya and out of Kenya.
    UDA sycophants:
    Please direct Samoei Cherop Ruto to his office located on Harambee Avenue and lock him there for the remainder of his term and ask him to use contemporary technology to do his job.
    If he (Samoei) is not willing to follow these simple directions, drive him to Sugoi as soon as possible.

    This is called ‘Untold story” where many questions to be raised- but who will answer them. It is called life let us learn from it.
