An altercation involving a senior police officer and his junior, believed to be romantically involved with the same woman, has left one of them dead in Kitengela, Kajiado County. 

According to a police report obtained by Citizen Digital, the deceased, Police Constable Manasseh Ithiru attached to Kitengela Police Station, reportedly fell to his death from the fourth floor of Geoffrey Flats, an apartment building located approximately 3 kilometres south of the police station along Deliverance Road.

The officer is said to have visited his girlfriend, 27-year-old Irene Wavinya Nzioka, who resides in room 416 of the said apartment on the fateful day.

Hours later, Sergeant Abubakar Said, attached to CIPU EPZ Camp Athi River, arrived at the same house unexpectedly to visit his girlfriend, Nzioka. 

A scuffle ensued between the two officers, with Sergeant Said overpowering the junior cop and reportedly throwing him from the apartment balcony. 

Officers from the DCI and CSI Unit based in Kitengela responded to the scene and found the lifeless body of the constable lying in a pool of blood in the parking lot with multiple injuries, including severe head trauma.

They processed and documented the scene as part of ongoing investigations.

The body was later moved to Shalom Hospital Mortuary pending a postmortem examination.

Both Sgt Abubakar Said and the woman have since been taken into custody and are assisting police with investigations.
