Four Arrested Over Murder of Scottish Businessman in Kenya

Four men have been arrested in Kenya in connection with the murder of Campbell Scott, a Scottish businessman whose body was found in a sack in Makongo Forest in February 2025.

Scott, 58, was discovered dead about 60 miles from Nairobi, where he had been attending a conference.

The arrests followed an intelligence-led, multi-agency operation in Ukunda, a coastal town near Mombasa.

Scott, a senior director at a credit scoring firm, had been reported missing after failing to attend a presentation at a Nairobi hotel.

He was last known to have visited a nightclub the evening before his disappearance.

Kenyan police believe he was held in a slum area near Nairobi while attempts were made to access his bank accounts.

His body was found with his hands bound inside a pineapple sack.

A post-mortem examination was inconclusive regarding the cause of death, with injuries deemed too minor to have been fatal.

The four suspects, Bernard Mbusu, Isaac Kinoti Kobia, Evans Muthengi Mutaki, and Kelvin Mwangi Njoroge, were apprehended at Ideal Apartments in Ukunda.
