  "summary": "Nairobi court orders Police Inspector Kenneth Sang to be detained for 14 days to aid investigations into the murders of psychiatrist Dr Victoria Nthunya Mutiso and city lawyer Mathew Kyalo Mbobu. The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) secured the detention order after the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) requested more time to interrogate the suspect and gather evidence. Sang was arrested in Eldoret and presented before Principal Magistrate Paul Mutai, who granted the detention at Kilimani Police Station. The court directed investigators to use the detention period to record Sang’s statement, conduct searches, pursue possible recoveries, facilitate a mental health assessment, and conclude investigations before charging him. The matter will be mentioned in court on November 9, 2026.",
