Police have been looking for Ms Maribe and believe the Toyota Allion is the one that the suspect used on the fateful night, when he is accused to have killed Monica.

Police also visited the deceased’s house in Kilimani for further dusting.

Maribe’s fiancé Joseph Irungu, alias Jowi, was arrested on Tuesday in relation to the murder and detained for ten days as detectives said they also wanted a statement from the journalist.

During Monica’s requiem mass in Thika on Thursday her brother claimed Jowi had wanted an affair with his late sister.
