“The arrest followed a shocking report made by the complainant, his wife, on how the suspect lured her in the dead of the night to River Kathita whereby he ordered her to strip naked and tell him all the men she had slept with while he was in Nairobi,” DCI said.
Tharaka South Police Commander Kiprop Rutto said the suspect from Kamatungu first inserted pepper, salt and onions into his wife’s private parts using a sharp knife before applying superglue mixed with sand to “seal” it off.
The man is now expected to be charged in court.
“The suspect will be charged accordingly by the Kenyan authorities once necessary police procedure is complete,” DCI said in a statement following the arrest of Mr Muriuki.
