Galana Suites apartment, where the late Kevin Omwenga lived plus the vehicles he owned were fully paid for by Global Jeta company.

The company is associated with Businessman Chris Obure.

In an affidavit to oppose bail, police now claim that investigations and evidence have shown that Obure and the deceased knew each other even though he has denied it.

"Investigations and documentary evidence have shown that although Obure had denied having any business or Strong relationship with the deceased there is strong evidence that Omwenga's apartment and vehicles he claimed to own were fully paid for by Global Jet a company that Obure has leadership authority in" the affidavit reads.

It is further alleged that Obure is a team leader with aspects of leadership at Global Jet International and has his offices at Senteu Plaza where police believe that he exercises full decision making responsibility.

Sgt Bashir Boya says they believe that Obure and Bodo acted jointly in the said murder.

Boya says the fact that Obure allowed his bodyguard Bodo to access his firearm in a safe clearly indicates that they a joint endeavor to have his gun used in the shooting that led to Omwenga's death.

The state wants the court to deny both Obure and Bodo bail on grounds that they will interfere with witnesses.

"The prosecution witnesses lined up to testify on the strong connection between Obure,Bodo and Omwenga are employees of Global Jet and if accused are released on bail they will interfere with the witnesses" they claim.

Obure and Bodo were charged yesterday with the murder of Omwenga and denied killing him.

The bail hearing is scheduled for Monday next week.
