The Director of Public Prosecution has applied for a 14-day detention of an official at the Venezuelan embassy arrested in connection with the death of the country's ambassador to Kenya.

Through state counsel Tabitha Ouya, the DPP said it is seeking extra detention days to allow for complete investigations before bringing up a formal murder charge against First Secretary Dwight Sagaray for the death of the Venezuelan's ambassador to Kenya Olga Fonseca.

The suspect had been charge d'affaires at the Venezuelan Embassy.

Ms Ouya told the court that Mr Sagaray is a suspect in the murder awaiting completion of investigations before he is formally charged.

She said that the suspect was arrested on Saturday, a few hours after his diplomatic immunity was waived, and that the police had not had enough time to compile evidence linking Mr Saragay to the murder.

"Initial investigations reveal the deceased was strangled and Mr Sagaray is a key suspect in her death. The offence is very serious and has attracted much public attention which is why we are requesting for more days to complete investigations," said Ouya.

She added that Mr Sagaray should be detained to allow investigators obtain post-mortem results of the deceased, DNA analysis report as well as age and mental assessment report of the suspect.

She argued that the investigators still need to secure more crucial evidence and arrest other possible suspects in the murder, adding that Mr Sagaray holds a very influential position at the Embassy and if released would interfere with potential witnesses.

"Possible witnesses are from the Embassy and we fear he might interfere with them. That is the reason we are asking to continue holding him to gather enough evidence to bring up murder charge," said Ouya.

The application to detain the suspect was opposed by his lawyer Jotham Arwa who asked the court to balance between the interest of the accused and justice.

Mr Arwa submitted that the reasons given to continue detaining the accused were not sufficient since the prosecution had enough time from Saturday - when he was arrested - to complete their investigations and either charge him with murder or release him.

He argued that Mr Sagaray's continued detention without being charged will not in any way stop the police from obtaining post-mortem and DNA results, and that there was no certainty that they will conclude the investigations within the requested 14 days.

Lady Justice Florence Muchemi will make a ruling on the application on Tuesday.

Police have circulated the photo of a man suspected to have been involved in the murder of the late charge d'affaires at the Venezuelan Embassy in Nairobi Olga Fonsesca.

Police spokesman Eric Kiraithe said that Muhammed Ahmed Mohammed Hassan was wanted by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) Nairobi Area in connection with the murder.

"Any person with information on his whereabouts is requested to report to the nearest police station or police officer," said Mr Kiraithe Tuesday.

Nairobi CID police boss Nicholas Kamwende moved to court to request a warrant of arrest for Mr Hassan.

The suspect is a close friend of the embassy's First Secretary Dwight Saragay, who was arraigned in court on Monday over the same allegations.

The Director of Public Prosecution, through state counsel Tabitha Ouya, applied for a 14-day detention of Mr Dwight to allow his office complete investigations before bringing up formal murder charge against him over the murder of Olga Fonseca.

"Initial investigations reveal the deceased was strangled and Mr Sagaray is a key suspect in her death. The offence is very serious and has attracted much public attention which is why we are requesting for more days to complete investigations," said Ms Ouya in court on Monday.

However, Lady Justice Florence Muchemi ruled that the suspect will be detained for six and not 14 days as requested by the State.


Mr Sagaray was arrested on Saturday, a few hours after his diplomatic immunity was waived, but police had not had enough time to compile all the necessary evidence.

Detectives feared that if released, he may interfere with potential witnesses since he holds an influential position at the Embassy.

Not so fast nanii...here you go.

Changes nothing, the prime suspect is still not Kenyan as he implied.
One thing i can bet on is the Kenyan police bungling with the investigations, they always take to court half-baked evidence.
