Barely a week after the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) acquired a warrant of arrest against her, more details have emerged about the ongoing fight pitting private investigator Jane Mugo.
The DCI, in a tweet on Thursday, branded Mugo a criminal involved in among others, robbery with violence and abduction, with her side of the story indicating that she is being fought by well-connected persons hiding behind the DCI.
She says that she is being fought by people angry with her for preventing them from disinheriting a British national of his property worth billions, scattered across Nairobi and London, including an Sh5 billion estate.
According to the prominent private investigator, that there are plans by top police officers to grab properties from British national Vallah Haribhai Bakrania who owns flats across the city, a fleet of expensive vehicles and several lucrative companies.
Ms Mugo told the Sunday Standard that on refusing to drop the case where she has been trying to protect the man and his sister, she was threatened by the state officers whom the paper has established are planning to deport Bakrania.
The investigator claims that apart from the threats, there have been attempts to poison her using alcohol and abducting her child from school, all of which flopped.
"I have recorded the threat to my life at Central Police Station vide OB no 94/4/9/19. A friend has informed me that some senior officers want me to stop pursuing this case or they will have fictitious charges levelled against me," she said.
The plot, according to the Standard, also includes freezing Bakrania's bank accounts to cripple her operations in the country.
Ms Mugo says that she has been working with the police to unravel cases during investigations, and has since reported the attempts to harm her to the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNHCR) for protection.
