Eastleigh Murder Suspect Claims He Was Hired, Confesses to Brutal Killing of Lang'ata Woman

 In a hurry? Here’s a quick summary…

  • Hashim Dagane Muhumed, a hired assassin, confessed to killing Deka Abdinoor and disposing of her body parts at Lang'ata Cemetery.

  • He is linked to the murders of Warris Daud, Nusayba Abdi, and Amina Abdi, with police investigating others involved in the killings.



Fresh details have emerged suggesting that Hashim Dagane Muhumed, the Eastleigh murder suspect, was a hired assassin assigned to eliminate three women. 

Investigations reveal that Hashim, along with other individuals still at large, was involved in the brutal killings of Warris Daud, her child, and her niece. 

However, Hashim confessed to having personally murdered Deka Abdinoor, dismembering her body and disposing of the parts at Lang'ata Cemetery.

On Friday, Hashim led detectives on a search at the cemetery to locate the missing body parts of Deka Abdinoor. 

At the scene, he admitted to killing Deka and scattering her remains across various spots within the cemetery. Hashim explained that he murdered Deka because she knew about his involvement in the deaths of Warris, Nusayba Abdi, and Amina Abdi.

Earlier this month, human remains were discovered at the cemetery, though some parts of the body were still missing. 

The missing body parts, including parts of the hands and legs, were the focus of Friday’s search. 

Unfortunately, police were unable to recover them, and it’s believed they may have been consumed by hyenas from the nearby Nairobi National Park. DNA samples have been collected, and Deka’s family is awaiting the results.

New information also suggests that Hashim was hired for the murders, with reports indicating he was paid millions of shillings to kill Warris Daud, possibly due to a love triangle involving Warris and another woman. 

Amina Abdi and Nusayba Abdi were reportedly killed as collateral damage. Investigators are continuing to trace other suspects believed to have been involved in the murders, with each assassin allegedly paid over Ksh. 1 million.

Hashim remains in police custody and will appear in court on December 2 for further proceedings. 

He faces murder charges for the deaths of four people in what has been described as one of the most horrific killing sprees witnessed in the country in recent years.
