Francis Kinyanjui faced five counts when he appeared before the Kibera law courts.

He was charged with four counts of causing death and a fifth one of driving without a licence.

Kinanjui had applied for bail but the prosecution rejected stating that he fled the scene of September 25 accident and outrage members of the public could harm.

A ruling on bail application will be made on Tuesday.

Kinanjui had fled the accident scene but later surrendered to the authorities after word went around that he was wanted.
