Suspected Serial Killer Escapes Nairobi Police Custody
News summary

Collins Jumaisi, a suspected serial killer accused of murdering 42 women, escaped from a Nairobi police cell along with 12 other detainees. Jumaisi, described by police as a 'vampire' and 'psychopath', was arrested last month after mutilated bodies were discovered in a rubbish dump. The escape occurred early Tuesday morning when inmates cut through a wire mesh in the basking bay area of the cell, prompting a major security operation and a manhunt by Kenyan authorities. Police have suspended eight officers, suspecting that the breakout was aided by insiders. Jumaisi had previously confessed to the murders but his lawyer claims he was tortured into making that confession. The escape raises significant concerns about police effectiveness and the handling of high-profile suspects in custody.
