“The respondents have crucial information that will assist the investigating officer to arrest other people who were involved in that heinous act,” added Mr Isemek.
The prosecution told the court that the accuseds’ mobile phones have been forwarded to the cybercrime unit of the DCI for forensic analysis.
The Court also heard that detectives are yet to record statements from crucial witnesses with the prosecuting, warning that the release of the suspects would jeopardize investigations.
Some suspects were allegedly found dressed with blood-stained clothes traces of blood which were forwarded to the government chemist for forensic examination.
The Court heard that the suspects are flight risk if released from custody, frustrating efforts to have them face justice.
On Monday, the first 13 suspects told the court they were arrested at their homes during a police swoop in the area following the incident.
They also objected to the police application to have them detained in custody to allow the completion of investigations.
In his ruling, the Principal Magistrate declined the prosecution application to have the 13 first suspects held in police custody for 21 days.
“I recognize this is a serious matter that requires the police to conduct thorough investigations. I, however, there is no enough reasons to have them detained for 21 days. The suspects shall remain in Mtwapa Police Station for five days pending investigations,” ruled the Magistrate Yusuf Shikanda.
