A popular Kenyan DJ has been arrested in connection with the fatal assault of a senior police officer.

The top DJ, who is presently detained at the Kabete Police Station alongside his bouncer, driver and photographer, allegedly attacked Kabete Police Station Deputy DCIO Felix Kelian on March 16, 2024.

The assault, according to a police report seen by Citizen Digital, happened after the officer was involved in a “non-injury traffic accident” on the said date at around 4am within Kikuyu market.

Police are allegedly pursuing more suspects including a woman who was reportedly at the scene.

Another three officers stationed at the Kikuyu Police Station were on Saturday evening arrested in connection with the incident.

The three; Khadija Abdi Wako, Sammy Rotich Cherono, and Agnes Kerubo Mugo, are currently being held as suspects of murder of the senior cop.

Inspector Kelian died on Friday while receiving treatment at the Nairobi West Hospital where he was undergoing treatment for abdominal pains and other injuries sustained after the alleged beating.

The body of the Deputy DCIO has since been moved to the Umash Funeral Home as investigations on the matter continue.
