The probe into an incident in which Nairobi lawyer Assa Nyakundi Kibagendi is accused of shooting his son has gained momentum.
Police on Tuesday recovered two more guns, 471 bullets from the lawyer’s home in Muthaiga, Nairobi.
On Sunday, the lawyer surrendered himself to the police after he allegedly shot his son dead under unclear circumstances.
During the search at his home, police discovered a pistol and 471 rounds of ammunition of various calibre inside a safe in the lawyer’s master bedroom, and another rifle in the adjacent room that acted as his library.
The police subjected the lawyer's car to ballistic tests, and have forwarded the license of the guns for tests as investigations continue.
“The firearm certificate and the civilian firearm certificate have been forwarded to firearms licensing board for verification,” said police, as quoted by Citizen.
The incident, which took place near their house in Muthaiga, Nairobi, has continued to elicit mixed reactions from different factions.
According to the lawyer, he accidentally shot the son, Joseph Nyakundi on the chest, while trying to holster his gun.
The son, who was 29-years old, was pronounced dead on arrival at the Aga Khan Hospital.
According to the police, the two were driving home on Sunday after attending a church on Mombasa Road.
