Frank Ambundo Shebesh is reported to have been rushed to the hospital after he shot himself on Tuesday night.

Police have said the information they have is that Shebesh, a licenced gun holder, was doing a safety precation to his Glock pistol when he accidentally shot himself.

Investigations have however been launched with experts in gun holding questioning whether actually the incident took place accidentally or it was 'another story'.

"We are looking at all angles and if it is possible for one to shoot himself in such a place while conducting safety precautions," The Standard quoted a police source privy to the investigations.

Shebesh lives with his wife, former vocal Nairobi Women Rep, at their house in Dennis Pritt Road, Kilimani.
