Security consultant Peter Ndwiga Njiru's decision to park his Toyota Probox KDB 506 U at a bus stop aided police and his family to act quickly in investigating his cold-blooded murder.
His wife, Wambui Ndwiga recounted to Citizen TV how it was very unusual for her husband to sleep out.
That set alarm bells for her and the next morning, on Wednesday she rushed to the Juja Police Station and reported Peter Ndwiga as a missing person.
The only clue to Ndwiga's last known locations was discovered by police after his car was towed to Juja Police Station, he had parked it along the highway when he met up with rogue cop Caroline Kangogo for a quick drink at 4 pm on Monday, July 5.
But he never made it back to the car or home.
