According to postmortem results the late Tecra Muigai had multiple head injuries, all of which could not have been caused by a fall down a flight of stairs.

Government pathologist Johansen Oduor said the injuries were unlikely caused by a single impact.

“This observation indicates blunt object injury and as well as a possible fall,” Dr Oduor said in his report.

Another report by consultant pathologist Andrew Gachii made similar observations.

“Tecra allegedly fell from a height. However, the numerous head injuries…are unlikely to have been caused by a single impact.

There are multiple impact sites as well as deep injuries, which suggest both blunt object blow injuries as well as a possible fall,” Dr Gachii concluded in his 14-page report.

A toxicology examination found no alcohol in Tecra’s system as had been earlier reported.

Omar was recently released after the DPP applied to have the case against Omar Lali terminated.

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.
