A Makadara court has given police the go-ahead to detain a woman who is suspected to have spent the night with a 35-year old man before he met his death in mysterious circumstances. Police told court Joyce Wairimu is being investigated for the murder of the deceased who was a nurse at Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) at the time of his death. The suspect will be held at the Dandora police station after the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) successfully obtained orders to hold her pending investigations into the death of Robert Maina. Maina collapsed and died in the presence of Wairimu in his rental house on the night of January 6. Josephat Wafula stated in his application before senior principal magistrate Merisa Opondo.
