Detectives have concluded the collection of critical evidence at the site of the Youth Aviation helicopter crash that claimed the lives of Emurua Dikirr MP Johana Ng’eno and five others on Saturday afternoon.

A multi-agency team, comprising homicide detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and aviation experts, spent Monday combing the wreckage site, retrieving flight instruments and technical components described as ‘black box’ equivalent, items expected to provide conclusive data on the last moments of the aircraft before the crash.
