A suspected serial killer has confessed to murdering 42 women over the past two years, police in Kenya have said, in a shocking case that has sparked calls for increased measures to combat gender-based violence in the country.

Authorities said Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, 33, “lured, killed, and disposed of 42 female bodies,” of which only nine have been recovered.

“On interrogation, the suspect confessed to having lured, killed, and disposed of 42 female bodies at the dumping site, all murdered between 2022 and Thursday, 11 July, 2024,” Amin said.

Acting police inspector general, Douglas Kanja, added in a statement that the “post-mortem examination is happening today” on the nine bodies recovered so far.

In a news conference on Sunday before the suspect’s arrest, Kanja said the bodies “were severely dismembered, in different states of decomposition, and left in sacks.”

“We are dealing with a serial killer, a psychopathic serial killer who has no respect for life, ”Kenya’s director of criminal investigations, Mohamed Amin said Monday.

Amin said that, according to the suspect’s confession, his first victim was his wife, whom he “strangled to death before dismembering her body and disposing it at the site.”
