DJ Brownskin, who is accused of aiding his wife’s suicide, has been released on a bond of Sh200,000.<\/p>\n
The Milimani chief magistrate, Lukas Onyina, said he had considered the pre-bail report, which was in Brownskin’s favor.<\/p>\n
“I have considered the report before me, which favors the accused as he is not a flight risk if released. I grant him a bond of Sh200,000 or a cash bail of Sh100,000,” Onyina ruled.<\/p>\n
The case will come up for mention on June 22.<\/p>\n
Last week, Brownskin was detained after the prosecution said his pre-bail report was not ready.<\/p>\n
The same court also declined to allow Brownskin’s application to have the DCIO Kasarani summoned to court for contempt.<\/p>\n
Brownskin’s lawyer, Duncan Okatch, had requested that DCIO Kasarani Jimmy Kimaru be summoned to appear in court for breaching court orders that released him before a Makadara court last week.<\/p>\n
However, the court ruled that it cannot establish any offense of contempt since the court orders alleged to have been violated were issued by Makadara Law Courts, which has equal jurisdiction.<\/p>\n
The DJ has denied the charges of aiding the suicide of his wife Sharon Njeri Mwangi on July 29, 2022.<\/p>\n
He faced a second count of failing to use all reasonable force to prevent his wife from committing suicide, although he had knowledge that she was planning to commit suicide.<\/p>\n
He was further charged with destroying suicidal evidence from his phone on June 1, 2023, having knowledge that the said evidence would be required in judicial proceedings.<\/p>\n
