The main suspect, captured on CCTV, gained entry into the building using a hammer.
Police said the assailant, believed to be a Ugandan national, accessed the sixth floor of an apartment with the assistance of the house help, identified as Everlyne, who is also a Ugandan national.
Upon entering, the assailant grievously assaulted Muhidin with assistance from Everlyne.
Investigators said a number of valuable items were stolen during the incident, including gold jewellery, an undisclosed amount of cash in both Kenyan shillings and U.S. dollars, and four laptops belonging to the family.
The victim sustained severe injuries, including a broken tooth and trauma to her hand, head, and legs.
The DCI further indicated that she showed signs of having been whipped, with visible marks on her back.
After receiving medical treatment, she was discharged and is currently recovering at a relative’s home, traumatized.
Authorities are also searching for the accomplice, who had joined the household just three weeks prior to the incident and managed to escape with the assailant.
At the time of the robbery, the tenant was not at home, as he was out with his children, while his wife was reportedly in India for medical treatment, police said.
A team of detectives has been formed to pursue the matter.
