This is how Citizen TV reported Bugii King Ihab Kariuki, also known as Ihab Salim Kariuki. DCI detectives from the Special Service Unit cornered him in Ruiru, near Gishasha farm, and shot him dead together with his friend.
The two were on a motorbike. When detectives ordered them to stop, they sped off towards Kariobangi. A chase followed, and they were shot after they were cornered. Police recovered a pistol with five rounds and the motorbike.
Earlier that day, he had robbed a businessman of KSh 350,000 in Mururui as the man was on his way to the bank, and left him injured.
One week before he was shot, he was linked to the killing of a 25-year-old man who had gone to buy medicine for his sick mother at Fadum Medicare Hospital in Umoja. Police said he had been on the wanted list since 2015, after he allegedly shot a trader dead during a robbery in the same estate, and that he had killed several people in Umoja.
Citizen TV described him as a fourth-year student at Meru University. Later reports named the Meru student as the Umoja victim, Rodgers Opiyo, and put Ihabโs age at 31. On Facebook he glorified the gang life, quoted Tupac, and wrote as if he already knew he would die by the bullet.
This guy is trending on social media after showcasing a unique way of catching bees, leaving many people wondering how he does it.
