A suspect told a city court that his former girlfriend lured him with sex and money to help stop her cheating husband.

Samuel Karanja and his ex-girlfriend Ruth Wamuyu allegedly threatened to kill Wamuyu’s husband of five years on November 12 at unknown location in the city. Wamuyu had suspected her husband to be keeping a mpango wa kando.

Karanja revealed to police he had been in an intimate relationship with Wamuyu, now a mother of two, between 2005 and 2006 in Nyahururu, but left for Nairobi when she got married in 2007. Karanja claims Wamuyu called him seven years later in March 2014, reminiscing of their good times.

“I visited Nairobi after she insisted, and we made love twice before I left,” Karanja said in his statement. In August, Karanja told authorities, Wamuyu called with the news that her hubby was not satisfying her since he was seeing another woman.

The court heard that Wamuyu convinced Karanja to travel over for another sexual encounter besides helping her execute a plot of forcing her hubby to leave his ‘clande’ for good.

Police accounts reveal Wamuyu bought a new phone and with two lines to be used by Karanja to warn Kamau (Wamuyu’s hubby) leave the other woman or face unknown consequences. He revealed, “Whenever Kamau left home, she would update me, and I would call to threaten him” a role for which Karanja was paid Sh7, 000. On November 25 Kamau lured Karanja with a promise of a Sh300,000 pay to back off.

Karanja told the court that he needed treatment as “I am experiencing a lot of pain in my testicles because police officers who arrested me squeezed me all over.”

The matter is set to be heard on April 8.
