| Omar Lali, late Tecra Muigai Karanja boyfriend. |
Late Keroche Breweries heiress Tecra Muigai boyfriend Omar Lali, 54, charged with murder and risks 20 years jail term.
He was charged at the Lamu Law Courts before Principal Magistrate Allab Temba via a video link.
The murder charge was pressed against him after the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) examined toxicological evidence, detailed post-mortem reports, mobile phone records and other documentary exhibits and witness statements.
The late Tecra, whose mother is the Keroche Breweries boss, died in May after nursing injuries in what was said to be a fall from a staircase in the house she was sharing with Lali on April 27.
Siaya Senator James Orengo, who is Tecra’s family lawyer, said that they were content with the decision to charge Lali with murder and could be jailed for 20 years or more.
The Lamu Magistrate Temba said that the homicide detectives have 24 hours to present Lali to the High Court in Garsen to have him take a plea for murder.
“I allowed the decision by the DPP to be taken to the next stage for murder plea taking. The court closed the miscellaneous Criminal application and directed the Homicide detectives to present Omar Lali Omar to the High Court at Garsen within 24 hours to take the murder plea or if unable to present him within 24 hours to give him Police Bond,” ruled Temba.
