By Chris Ojow
Nairobi’s Senior Principal Magistrate in a short ruling remanded
four revelers suspected to have caused the death of their friend
who’s body awaits postmortem at a City Mortuary.
The four suspects male Nigerian Citizen and three Kenyan youthful
ladies , one of them a mother of two months old baby were arrested
last Friday and arraigned at Milimani Law Court under
miscellaneous application filed submitted by the State Prosecution,
requesting for more days to detain the suspects as the Directorate of
Criminal Investigations concludes preliminary investigations .
Umar Kabir Kamara , Vera Osebe Omari, Diana Moraa and
Annestine Mamuji Helmut together with other revelers who are
alleged by the State that disappeared in thin air after one of them
died during a party organised in one of the notorious leafy suburb,
Kilimani Estate Nairobi County as Detectives are now relying on a
Government pathologist report to determine the cause of death.
In a lengthy submission , the State prosecution informed the duty
Court that there is need to establish the identity of the first
respondent a Nigerian Nationality and the habitats of three
respondents while objecting to the release of suspects , describing
them as flight risks and more likely to interfere with the ongoing
investigations which might hamper their efforts to arrest other
runaway suspects .
The Detectives also managed to secure the CCTV cameras and towed
three luxurious vehicles to Kilimani Police Station Nairobi County .
Responding to the application submitted by the State , the first
respondent Kamara through his Attorney Elkana Mogaka opposed
the State application requesting for identification parade and to
share details with the immigration officials whether the respondent
is lawful or unlawfully in the Country .
Officer of the Court Elkana Mogaka also humbly urged the duty
Court to grant his client request since the State Prosecution
appeared before duty Court without a holding charge and were
contemplating charging alleged innocent revelers with murder who
have no idea on the cause of death to one of their friend also
partying and were shocked after learning about the sad news.
