Kenya Offers Reward for Serial Killer Escapee

News summary

Kenyan police have launched a manhunt and offered a cash reward for information on Collins Jumaisi, a suspected serial killer who escaped from a Nairobi police cell. Jumaisi, described as a 'vampire, a psychopath', is accused of murdering and dismembering 42 women over two years, with his wife being his first victim. His escape, along with 12 others, has raised concerns about police negligence, especially given that mutilated bodies were found just 100 meters from a police station. Five officers suspected of aiding his escape were released on bond despite a prosecutor's request for their detention. The Independent Police Oversight Authority is investigating possible police involvement in the case. This incident marks the second high-profile escape from custody in six months, alarming many Kenyans and prompting scrutiny of police practices.
