Kibera Law Courts has ordered the continued detention of actress and former television host Regina Wambui Gitau, popularly known as Regina Re, and two other suspects for a further two working days as police continue investigating the murder of their 86-year-old mother, Dorita Lasinder Macharia.

Kibera Law Courts Magistrate Barbara Akinyi granted the investigators’ request to hold the three suspects for an additional two working days to allow police to complete investigations into the alleged murder.

However, the court released another suspect, Immanuel Walgwe Munyeki, who had also been arrested in connection with the murder.

Regina Re and the two other suspects will remain in custody for two more days as investigators pursue further inquiries into the circumstances surrounding the death of their elderly mother.
