Kenya: Court Releases Suspect Linked to the Murder of Eric Maigo Due to Insufficient Evidence

25 September 2023

Nairobi — A Nairobi Court has released a suspect linked to the murder of the Nairobi Hospital Finance Director Eric Maigo.

This is after the prosecution said that they have no evidence charge or even continue detaining the alleged suspect.

Last week the prosecution applied for her to be detained for five days in order to conclude investigations.

"After investigations we have forwarded the file to the ODPP and there was no sufficient evidence to charge the respondent herein," the court was told.

The miscellaneous file was closed and the lady was set free

Maigo was discovered with 25 stab wounds in a pool of blood at his Woodley Estate residence in Nairobi last week.
