The two were cornered while ferrying suspected stolen pork meat on Tuesday morning and set ablaze before police could come to their rescue.
The main suspect nicknamed ‘Machete’ due to the weapon he used to carry and antagonize his victims with had been on the run after defiling a five year old girl and the mother a week ago.
Former Lake view MCA Simon Wanango Wanyoike narrated he they have had sleepless nights trying to deal with the increased cases of insecurity in the area.
Wanyoike said everyone was afraid of the two suspects who would attack even during day time raping women and carting away household goods.
"They begun robbing from houses then they went ahead and started raping women and defiling school going children before members of the public caught up with them," he said.
According to another witness Steve Mwangi, the two suspects have been terrorizing residents mainly in the evening as they left their places of work for home.
He said that after the two were cornered in their house, word went round that they would be lynched in a public place where they committed the atrocities.
"All motorcycle operators were involved in the operation and we decided it was time for them pay for their deeds," he said.
