Omar Lali free at last after Lamu Court declined to extend his detention

Lamu court has declined to extend the detention of the late Tecra Muigai’s boyfriend Omar Lali over suspected murder charges.

Omar was arrested on May 3rd after he gave differing accounts of Tecra’s death leading police to believe he was hiding something.

Tecra died on May 2 from head injuries she sustained on April 27 after she allegedly fell down a flight of stairs in a rented cottage she shared with Lali in Shella area in Lamu Island.

The lastborn of Keroche Breweries CEO Tabitha Karanja is reported to have lost a lot of blood before she was rushed to by Shella Dispensary and later to the King Fahad Hospital.

After about 11 hours of unsuccessfully seeking treatment in Lamu, Lali is said to have contacted her mother who chartered an Amref helicopter that flew her to a Nairobi hospital where she died.

An autopsy conducted by chief government pathologist Johansen Oduor revealed that Tecra succumbed to injuries sustained on the left side of her head.

She was buried in a private ceremony at her home in Naivasha a couple of weeks ago.
