The investigation into the death of interior designer Jeff Mwathi was purportedly recently finished on April 18, 2023, according to detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
The DCI boss Amin Mohamed had recently ordered fresh investigations into the death of the 23-year-old. It was previously claimed that Jeff was murdered before being thrown out of the 10th-floor window of Mugithi sensation Lawrence Njuguna alias Dj Fatxo’s home at Roadside apartments in Kasarani on February 22nd, 2023.

Chief government pathologist Johansen Oduor who conducted a second autopsy after the body was exhumed in Njoro, Nakuru county, on the same day revealed that samples had been taken to ascertain if Mwathi was sodomized or not.
However, according to the DCI detectives, it was impossible for someone to have been thrown out through the window of the bedroom given the small opening. If the window was the point where the 23-year-old Jeff fell from, he may have maneuvered across the tiny opening before falling to the ground floor.
The report further details that the 23-year-old was in a hangover and began to throw up in the house, making the host and his friends direct him to a room to recuperate.
Dj Fatxo’s friends, the two filmed on the ground floor on CCTV, were reported to have gone to check whether the Dj had passed out in his car, which occasionally occurred. This is after the Dj had taken long to return to the house after having escorted two ladies they were with back home.
DCI indicate that the duo was still in the lift when CCTV captured the interior designer falling from the 10th floor.
Dj Fatxo was earlier claimed to have snubbed viewing Jeff Mwathi’s body after he fell, this incident rose netizens’ eyebrows. However, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations revealed that Dj Fatxo refused to view the body because he fears dead bodies.
Findings on Jeff Mwathi’s Death
As reported, the latest findings of the probe into Jeff Mwathi’s death now rule out the possibility of the 23-year-old having been murdered. This report has disputed earlier claims that Jeff was murdered in the house of Dj Fatxo, a popular Kikuyu entertainer. The investigations suggest that Jeff Mwathi took his own life.
These new findings by the DCI detectives point to a possibility of Mwathi having fatally harmed himself, just like the findings of the initial investigations conducted by the officers at Kasarani police station suggested.
Jeff Mwathi’s case file that detailed the findings of the police was submitted to the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) on April 19.
Noordin Haji’s office is yet to give a way forward in the case, with the conclusive autopsy report expected to be released in three months’ time.
The fate of renowned Mugithi sensation, Dj Fatxo now remains in the hands of the office of the Director of Public Prosecutions. This after the findings of the investigation carried out by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations handed over the case file to Noordin Haji.
