The news comes hours after the United Kingdom Defence Secretary John Healey met the family of Angnes Wanjiru to express his condolences and promise that the matter will be looked into and justice served.
“It was deeply humbling to meet the family of Agnes Wanjiru today. In the 13 years since her death they have shown such strength in their long fight for justice.
We will continue to offer our full support to the Kenyan authorities so the family can secure the justice they deserve.” said Haeley
Wanjiru is alleged to have been killed by a British soldier back in 2012 after a night with them and her body was dumped inside a septic tank.
The matter has since caught the attention of many Kenyans who are closely following on the matter to see how it will end.
