Jeff Mwathi's mother Hanna Wacuka is still in pain from losing her firstborn son mysteriously.

The grieving mum has broken her silence about the progress of finding justice for her son.

Through her TikTok page, Jeff's mum said they cannot force issues adding that the family is confident that DCI is doing its job well.

"We are just waiting coz DCI is doing their job. We can not rush them. We cannot force issues and we have to wait and follow the route they are taking us," she said.

Mugithi singer DJ Fatxo is the key suspect in the death of Jeff Mwathi who allegedly fell from the 12th floor of a building where the singer lived.

Jeff's mum appeared at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on Tuesday, March 14 in the company of her legal team and relatives.

There have been questions from Kenyans on why the DCI is yet to arrest anyone regarding the death of Jeff Mwathi.

In the February 22 incident, Mwathi who was an interior designer was captured on CCTV footage falling from the 10th-floor apartment window of the house belonging to DJ Fatxo.

According to reports, Mwathi had been in DJ Faxto's house after spending the night partying with the popular Mugithi singer alongside his cousin and driver.

CCTV footage from the Redwood apartments showed Mwathi with DJ Fatxo and three unidentified women returning to the DJ's apartment around 3 am.

In a presser with local blogs the DCI through their officer shared;

"There are ongoing investigations.

When we reach the right time the file will be presented to the ODPP before a decision to charge is made.

If anyone of you has information regarding the incident, let them cooperate with the police so that the information is documented and a decision is made as to the evidence thresh hold."

Further adding;

Anyone with information that might help solve the murder puzzle was requested to make an official report to the police.

"If anyone has been threatened by the suspects, Make a report to the police so that it can be investigated independently.

 If we mix the issues we are going to miss the point.

One can visit the DCIO and Kasarani offices. If they refuse to do so visit DCI headquarters."

Why are there no arrests made?

"We do not put the cart before the horse.

we must package the evidence first. We cannot arrest them first in case there is nowhere to take them in case we are not prosecuting them.

Investigations have no stipulated time frame.

It is not a crime that is likely to be committed by one person.

We are taking time so that we take them to court because of evidence and not because of public pressure."

Kenyan on social media are still pleading that the responsible people be arrested.
