According to the police, they noticed Wanjala's disappearance during a morning roll call.


Three police officers who were on duty when Wanjala disappeared, were also arrested and detained.



The Kenyan Police had launched a massive manhunt for Masten Wanjala, who confessed to killing children numbering about 14, after drugging them; he also admitted of drinking their blood.


The 20 year old Wanjala, according to reports, was traced by villagers to a house in Bungoma town where he was hiding, after escaping from the Police custody.



It was reported that Wanjala returned to his parents home, who had already disowned him because of his evil deeds.


Those who discovered that Wanjala was in the house, called on the other neighbors, who trooped in, and beat him mercilessly till he died.


Bungoma's Police Commander said, "Masten Wanjala was trying to stave off suspicious locals by moving to a nearby house".



Mrs. Grace Adhiambo, a mother to four of the children killed by Wanjala, told the media, as partly written:


"I would have loved to see him in court, so I can know why he did all these; brutally killing our four children and left us with pain", as tears were rolling down her cheek.


She continued, "As you can see, the decomposing body of the teenage boy, is my son; he was one of the four victims recovered by the police in Nairobi and its environs".


According to an autopsy done by the government pathologist, they discovered that the victims were strangled and hit on the head with a heavy object.


The killing of Wanjala by the angry villagers, has been seen as a 'good development' by some social media users and Kenyans.




Similarly, some Kenyans who commented on this latest development, said it's a good one, because the case would have been swept under the carpet; noting that Masten Wanjala was arrested 3 months ago, but was yet to be charged to court.
