Police officer investigating the gruesome Murder of LGBTQ Activist and Fashion Designer Edwin Chiloba have so far arrested four people.
Jacton Odhiambo who is believed to be Chiloba's boyfriend was the first Suspect to be arrested after a testimony by the caretaker of the apartment they were living at.

Among those arrested is 2017 Uasin Gishu BodyBuilder Champion Denis Litali. He was also the 2nd runners up for East African body building 2022.
Litali, who denied having knowledge of Jacton and other suspects, is said to have allegedly assisted in stuffing Chiloba's body in a metallic box and dumping his body on the roadside.
While being presented before the court, Litali accused the police for using him in covering up the crime.
Requesting for bond, he pleaded with the magistrate to fee him so that he can go and take care of his young family.
"All these people being held with me as suspects are strangers that I have never met. Detaining me for three weeks will subject my young family to a lot of suffering and anguish,” Mr Litali said.
However, his request was denied, with police being granted permission to detain them for 21 days for further investigations.
