In 2012, a 21-year-old Kenyan woman named Agnes Wanjiru was found murdered — her body dumped in a septic tank behind a hotel in Nanyuki. The prime suspect? A British soldier.
For years, the case was buried. Witnesses were ignored. Evidence was overlooked. And the people responsible… walked free.
I started this story thinking it was just one case. But what I found was bigger — disturbing reports of abuse, cover-ups, and a legacy of silence surrounding the British Army's presence in Kenya.
This is not just about one murder.
It’s about a system that protects power over people.
