Douglas Mbohani , a man who allegedly threatened to kill his former employer has been charged with the offence of issuing death threats.
Douglas is accused of threatening to kill Edith Mukunya at her hotel in Toi market in Kibera, Nairobi on May 18, 2022.
The man is said to have visited the hotel at around midday and started creating a disturbance to customers while threatening to kill the complainant.
According to the prosecution, in the midst of the altercation, Mr Mbohani uttered the words, “Leo I will make sure nimekuangamiza. Nitarudi na squad yangu tukumalize,”
He is later on alleged to have trailed the complainant to her house with a group of youths he had reportedly hired, but Ms Mukunya managed to locked herself in the house. She reported the matter to the police and the suspect was subsequently arrested.
