Anne Adhiambo Akinyi, the main suspect in the gruesome murder of Nairobi Hospital Acting Finance Director Eric Maigo is fit to stand trial.

This emerged on Wednesday following an age and mental assessment conducted at the Mathari Hospital in Nairobi which confirmed she is a Kenyan adult of sound mind contrary to earlier reports that she might have been a minor.

Adhiambo was presented before court on a miscellaneous application on the 27th of September, where the court granted the prosecution 21 days to hold her pending conclusion of investigations.

Sources privy to the investigation revealed that the age and mental assessment is set to be presented before court upon the lapse of the 21 days.

Adhiambo was captured on CCTV escaping from the scene of Maigo's murder on the morning of 15th of October at Jamhuri area of Nairobi.

She was arrested at Olympic in Kibra after efforts by detectives were backed by members of the public who provided intelligence on her whereabouts.

Adhiambo stands accused of being behind the gruesome murder of Maigo whose lifeless body was found in his house bearing 25 stab wounds.

Adhiambo who has already recorded a statement with the police is expected back in court on the 28th of October.
