“He said he wanted me to keep him company. I refused and told him I was busy. He even offered to pay me, but I stood my ground and told him I would only be free from 3 pm,” she said.
At 3 pm, the colleague saw the man with Precious but did not pay much attention at the time.
The man, now a suspect, is reported to have fled with Precious’s phone and the key to the room after locking her inside.
Police officers who were called to the scene moved the young woman’s body to a nearby mortuary, where a post-mortem examination will be conducted to determine the cause of death.

Netizens react after woman is found dead in Arusha
Netizens expressed sorrow, religious reflections, and frustration as they called for the installation of CCTV cameras in all guesthouses to help track suspects in such cases.
AbuuNahman:
“Brothers and sisters, let us continue to fear Allah. This is dangerous. One of our sheikhs says everyone will be resurrected in the state in which they died. Oh Allah, grant us a good ending.”
KitanduAsia-f8c:
“Arusha, every day it’s our youth dying. Every day! May God forgive them.”
Tiffahhassan1192:
“Everyone says it’s always Arusha, but it’s not just Arusha where these things happen. Other regions have many incidents too, it's just that the Arusha reporter is always active and well-connected, which is why you see so many reports from there.”
Michaelminja:
“My condolences. I suggest that all guesthouses should be required to install CCTV cameras. It would make it easier to identify suspects when something goes wrong.”
