After the DPP applied to have the case against Omar Lali terminated, the lover of the late Tecra Muigai broke down in tears at the Garsen court.

Accompanied by his family the tears flowed freely after he was freed.

Lali, 54, was to be charged over Tecra's death after the DPP reviewed toxicological evidence, detailed postmortem reports, phone records, other documentary exhibits and witness statements.

Tecra, the daughter of Keroche Breweries CEO Tabitha Karanja, died in May in what was reported as an accident.

She suffered cerebral oedema resulting from a fall on April 27 from a staircase at a house she shared with Lali in Lamu.

Here is a video of Omar Lali and his family after he was released.
