Sleuths are still searching for baby Liam’s captors who escaped moments before the rescue.
“Should you have any information that may lead to the arrest of the suspects, please notify us through our anonymous toll free line 0800722203,” added DCI.
Shortly after rescuing the boy, detectives nabbed King’ori who was tried to escape the sleuths’ dragnet.
He had apparently visited a salon in Naivasha in an attempt to conceal his identity.
“Detectives were however too smart for the suspect’s antics, since they pounced on him as he escaped on a getaway motorbike. His arrest follows stealth & relentless efforts by the investigators, to ensure that the perpetrator does not enjoy a single day of freedom again, to torment innocent children and their families.”
