Detectives from the Homicide department based at DCI Headquarters, have this morning taken over investigations into the death of 23-year-old Jeff Mwathi, from Kasarani police station.
This follows a directive by the Director of Criminal Investigations Mr. Mohamed Amin, for the expeditious investigation into the death of the young man.
“The public is assured that no stone shall be left unturned in the investigation of this case and any person found to have been involved in the death shall face the full force of the law,” the DCI said.
Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki has also ordered the homicide team to investigate the death of Mwathi who died under mysterious circumstances at the house of Mugithi singer DJ Fatxo.
In a statement issued on Friday, March 10, 2023, CS Kindiki said he had spoken to DCI boss Amin and instructed him to send a team of experts to thoroughly investigate the incident and take necessary action.
“I thank the DCI for his quick action on this matter. The homicide team from the DCI headquarters is dispassionate, and this will help resolve the claims of collusion at Kasarani Police Station where the matter was reported,” he said.
Meanwhile, anyone with information that may assist with investigations has been asked to volunteer it to the head of Homicide at DCI headquarters or call DCI toll free #FichuakwaDCI number 0800 722 203.
