UPDATE:;The Management of Kenyatta National Hospital says Kennedy Kalombotole, the prime suspect in the murder of a patient at the KNH was a homeless person with no known relatives.

Through a statement, Kalombotole had been discharged from KNH in January 2025 but he remained at the hospital as the facility was looking for an alternative accommodation for him.

The hospital emphasizes that the suspect had been discharged, and the Hospital did not intend or desire to host him indefinitely. However, in the absence of alternative options and pending direction from investigative agencies, they had no choice but to continue with his stay in the Hospital.
