According to a report by K24 TV on Saturday, December 7, the widow pleaded with her husband to hold prayers and even hid his car keys to prevent him from going out but she was unsuccessful.

“My husband searched for the key at around 4am in the morning and thereafter, drove out in high speed,” the mother of three told the police.

The widow’s statement was corroborated by Mutinda’s relative, Benedict Sila, who revealed the 46-year-old left his home hurriedly a few minutes to 4am after being "called" by his late father.

Mueni said she was not in any conflict with her husband that could have pushed him to death.
