Kenyan authorities announced on Monday that they had detained a suspect in the "serial killer" case, who had admitted to killing forty-two women and disposing of their mutilated bodies in a Nairobi trash can. The country has been appalled by the horrific discovery of nine dismembered and disfigured bodies wrapped in plastic bags that were taken from the trash dump in the Mukuru slum neighborhood south of the capital since Friday. Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, the 33-year-old key suspect, was apprehended on Monday afternoon close to a pub, according to Acting Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja. Mohamed Amin, the director of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, stated, "We are dealing with a serial killer, a psychopathic serial killer who has no respect for human life."
