Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti says that American ivory investigator Esmond Bradley Martin may have been murdered by people with a motive of grabbing a 20-acre piece of land he owned in Nairobi’s Karen estate.
The 75-year-old was in February found dead at his residence in Langata, Nairobi with a stab wound on his neck. The former United Nations special envoy for rhino conservation was famous for his undercover work investigating the black market for ivory.
Prior to his death, the United States citizen had returned from a research trip to Myanmar and was in the process of compiling up his findings.
“We are progressing well (with investigations) and pointing to a case of pure murder to grab property,” DCI boss Kinoti said without elaborating.
While responding to queries on why the probe into Martin’s murder was taking long, Kinoti further noted that more than 20 people had recorded statements regarding the murder. The police boss said his killers targeted his 20-acre land located in Karen.
