The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) is set to prefer murder charges against Safaricom-sponsored rally champion Maxine Wahome.
State prosecutor James Gachoka told Milimani senior principal magistrate Bernard Ochoi that circumstances in the matter have changed following the death of Assad Khan.
“The circumstances in this investigation have changed following the death of Assad last December. Maxine is now being investigated for murder and grievous harm I request the matter to be mentioned in 14 days,” Gachoka said.
The family of Assad has engaged lawyer Cliff Ombeta to appear for it in the matter.
Maxine was last month arraigned over the alleged assault of her boyfriend, top rally driver Asad Khan.
A court report stated that police had visited the scene and found blood and household goods littered on the floor and staircase.
She was released on a Sh100,000 cash bail after spending two nights in custody.
Days later, Khan was pronounced dead at Avenue hospital where he was receiving treatment following the incident.
He had initially been admitted to the Nairobi Hospital’s High Dependency Unit (HDU) with serious deep cuts on the right ankle.
His death prompted police to summon six key witnesses, including Maxine, for interrogation and recording of statements.
She was presented at Kilimani Police Station for a three-hour grilling session.
Her saliva samples were taken for DNA profiling at the Government Chemist.
Asad, 50, was described as humble, generous and kind-hearted.
Alongside his brother, they headed a team of mechanics as members of the Service Crew for the Young FIA Team that participated in several events across the continent.
Woke culture ideally comes from rabid feminism, which ultimately destroys the world by giving mean people a shield to be mean and cruel, armoured in false virtue.
The company’s hypocrisy stood out in this saga.
It would not be shocking to learn that Safaricom paid Maxine Wahome’s cash bail.
Up to this day, the rogue Telco is yet to issue any statement condemning the Gender-Based Violence meted upon another by their champion and image carrier.
Their PR firm, Oxygene, has a lot to answer, with some bosses previously accused of sexual immorality within it.
But they are still serving. We can deduce why the statement has been delayed.
Their silence is deafening.
