British Soldier Fights Extradition in Kenyan Murder Case

Former British soldier Robert James Purkiss, 38, contests extradition to Kenya over murder charges in connection with Agnes Wanjirus death in 2012. Wanjiru, 21, was last seen with British soldiers, including Purkiss, at a hotel bar. Her body was found in a septic tank, with evidence suggesting she may have been alive when placed there. Purkiss denies the charges, but prosecutors present confessions and witness accounts implicating him. Wanjirus family has sought justice for years, and Purkiss remains in custody pending a bail hearing. The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
