The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has arrested Timothy Omondi Ngoe and Mary Nekesa Ambani in connection with the double murders of Kenyan based Dutch tycoon Herman Rouwenhorst and his guard.
The investigators narrowed in on the two after close to two months of investigation into the murder of the 55-year-old businessman and his guard Evans Bokoro on June 4th.
The investigations have now come full circle after his wife, Riziki Cherono, was arrested as a co-conspirator in the murder just days after the tragic double homicide.

In an update on social media on Sunday, DCI revealed how Cherono plotted her husband's murder after he informed her of his intentions to dissolve the marriage.
The two suspects nabbed by the DCI revealed how Cherono set up a meeting o May 10th where the plan to kill Mr Rouwenhorst was hatched.
Cherono even went to the extent of inviting Timothy Omondi into her home where he took photos that aided them during their killing mission.
On the fateful night, Cherono opened the door for the killers who went ahead to complete their mission before making away with Ksh 3 million from the couple's safe.
To cover Cherono's tracks, the killers staged a kidnapping from which Cherono was rescued by the police after making distress calls to the authorities.
Omondi went ahead to purchase land in Kiembeni with the proceeds from the murder and built a four-bedroom bungalow.
