Her children remained stranded outside after important items in their house were stolen. Khanzika came back and realized her items worth more than Ksh. 69000 were missing.
Amid her shock, she stumbled on a cap which she suspected to belong to Auka, having seen him wear it several times.
Her neighbors aslo confirmed they had seen Auka within the residential area.
