Omar Lali, who is at the center of Tecra’s death, was arrested by police officers to record a statement, before he was presented to court on Tuesday.
The order given by Lamu Principal Magistrate Allan Temba on Tuesday, will allow homicide detectives conclude probe into the circumstances that led to the death of Ms. Muigai.
The suspect Omar, is said to have given conflicting accounts of the story, initially saying Tecra tumbled down the stairs before later changing his account to say she tripped in the bathroom.
Tecra is the daughter of Keroche Breweries Chairman Joseph Karanja and CEO Tabitha Karanja.
Her untimely death is a big blow to the family, as the company continues to tackle cases of huge Tax evasion claims by the Kenya Revenue Authority.
