Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki on Friday, March 10 directed the Director of Criminal Investigation, Amin Mohamed, to send a homicide team to investigate Jeff Mwathi ‘s death case involving popular Mugithi artist Dj Fatxo.
“On the matter of the late Jeff Mwathi, I have spoken to the DCI Mr. Amin this morning and instructed him to send a homicide team from the DCI headquarters to thoroughly investigate the incident and take the necessary action,” Kindiki announced.
He went on to acknowledge the DCI’s fast action in the matter that has caused an online uproar.
“I thank the DCI for his quick action on this matter. The homicide team from the DCI headquarters is dispassionate, which will help resolve the claims of collusion at Kasarani Police Station where the matter was reported,” he added.
Jeff Mwathi was reported to have jumped from the house of the popular vernacular DJ.
Allegedly, the 23-year-old died by suicide after a night out with the artist and a group of friends. According to reports, the incident occurred at around 5.74 am in the morning.
His body was moved to the morgue and reportedly no medical examination was conducted on his body since it was past 72 hours.
