Nelson Havi, the former President of LSK, recounts his narrow escape from death. The former President disclosed that authorities were tracking cartels, but they required legal representation in court.
“Some young men sold Sirona Hotel using a fake title and received Kshs 200M. They came to me when the DCI attached their accounts, then with only Kshs 25M remaining,” the former LSK President said.
“I asked them to deposit fees of Kshs 5M before I could move to court.”
“In the evening we had maji ya anasa with Mugambi Imanyara, and I told him about it. He told me those men are the walking dead. Do not take their money.
“A week later, I saw a bullet-ridden Mercedes-Benz 200C across my office at Parklands Station. I asked the OCPD, my schoolmate from Musingu, what happened.
“He told me, “Wale Mawakili wa Sirona na client wao waliumwa wote. Hakuna kesi tena,” Havi concluded.
However, the police accused the Wakili of mistaken identity, being at the wrong place at the wrong time, or something similar. They pumped over ten bullets into his body.
The slain lawyer was Jeremiah Kinyua Meeme, who was representing the young cartels in court.
It took 50 bullets to stop a city lawyer and four of his friends after a dramatic chase by police on Tuesday evening in Juja.
The highway car chase and the force of violence have left relatives in shock, and the legal fraternity is demanding answers on the circumstances surrounding the killings and the motive.
Then government pathologist Peter Ndegwa conducted an autopsy on Jeremiah Kinyua Meeme’s body, it emerged that he had been shot seven times in the mouth, eye, head, and stomach.
Another victim, 26-year-old Ian Collins Ojuok, had 18 bullets in his body, while a third man had one bullet.
