Just a fortnight after the tragic murder of one Starlet Wahu a lady who was murdered at an Airbnb in South C, the nation is shaken by yet another horrifying incident, Along Thika Road Mall Drive.
The 20-year-old lady was brutally murdered and dismembered in another Airbnb, allegedly by her suspected lover.
Disturbingly, various women on social media have shared near-fatal encounters at Airbnbs shedding light on the sinister activities of individuals like John Matara, the main suspect in Starlet Wahu’s Case.
Despite some Airbnb locations having 24/7 CCTV surveillance, as in Wahu’s tragedy, it seems insufficient to deter individuals like Matara from carrying out their heinous acts. This wave of incidents prompts unsettling questions about the security measures within Airbnbs and the potential risks associated with meeting people in such spaces.
The revelations have transformed Airbnbs into apprehensive environments, urging caution among women as they navigate encounters within these accommodations.
The community is left grappling with concerns about the safety protocols and the need for increased vigilance in these shared spaces.
