The High Court has issued a warrant of arrest for a British military officer accused of killing Agnes Wanjiru Wanjiku.
Wanjiku went missing on 2012 who was reported to be in the company of British soldiers at a hotel.
The orders were issued by Judge Alexander Muteti, with the identity of the military officer, who was part of the British Army Training Unit Kenya (BATUK), still unknown over a decade after the murder.
The warrant was issued after the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), informed the court that the suspect had been formally charged with the offence of murder but failed to attend court.
Despite the lack of information surrounding his identity, the British government previously assured Wanjiku’s family that it would provide the identity of the accused soldier.
The case will be mentioned on October 21, 2025, to confirm compliance.
