Several rounds of ammunition were on Saturday afternoon recovered from Babu Owino’s Kileleshwa home as detectives intensify investigations into the shooting of B-Club disc jockey, Felix Orinda, alias DJ Evolve.
DCI officers handling the case told K24 Digital that the lawmaker owns the bullets legally, but confiscated them to aid in further probe.
During the search conducted at around 2pm, Babu Owino, who was transferred to Gigiri Police Station from Kilimani police post early Saturday, was present.
