Celebrity rally driver Maxine Wahome’s file has been forwarded to the Director of Public Prosecutions Noordin Haji.
When the matter came for mention yesterday before Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Bernard Ochoi,the court was told that investigations into the matter are complete and the file has been forwarded to Haji’s office for perusal and recommendations.
“I urged this court to close this investigation file. The DCI homicide office completed investigations into the matter on January 25 and the file was forwarded to the office of DPP for perusal and further action,” the officer stated.
The respondent, who is being represented by lawyer Steve Kimathi is alleged to have murdered her boyfriend Asad Khan.
Kimathi said he is not opposed to the decision as had complied with the court directions and will continue to cooperate until the DPP gives node.
Asad’s family, however, opposed the DCI and DPP’s intention to close the investigations file without giving directions on whether Wahome will be charged or not.
Through lawyer Danstan Omari, the family stated that the closure should wait for the DPP’s decision.
Court will make ruling on whether to allow the closure of the case on February 15, 2023.
