DJ Joe Mfalme was on Monday, April 8, 2024, released from remand in the ongoing murder case of Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officer Felix Kelian.
In a ruling on Monday, Kibera Magistrate Margaret Murage was informed by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) that DJ Joe Mfalme and five others, including three police officers, will be designated as State witnesses.
The accused-turned-state witnesses are Eric Kariuki Gathua, Simon Wambugu Wanjiru, Khadija Abdi Wako, Sammy Cheruiyot Rotich, and Agnes Kerubo Mogoiare.
Joe Mfalme had been in custody for 14 days alongside six others before their release on Monday.
The seven had been held on the request of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the State to allow investigations into the murder of Kabete detective Felix Kelian to be concluded.
When they appeared in court Monday for directions, the Magistrate was told that the DPP had resorted to utilising DJ Joe Mfalme and some six respondents as state witnesses.
After court proceedings, Mfalme expressed gratitude for being exonerated of the murder charges.
"Bro, acha ata niende nikaoge na ninyolewe, but it went well, the lawyer already told you. Nishalearn lesson, 14 days," Joe Mfalme said.
