In a sad turnout of events, a legal expert lost his blood in his own hands in accidental claims.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations is investigating circumstances under which lawyer Assa Nyakundi shot dead his 29 year old son at their Muthaiga home.
The lawyer told the police that he accidentally pulled the trigger and discharged one bullet that hit his son in the chest.
The two had arrived home after attending a service at ICC church on Mombasa Road on Sunday.
However reports indicate that the advocate was rushed to the hospital after developing shock symptoms while at the Muthaiga Police Station where he was being interrogated for the shooting.
The advocate was expected to be arraigned in court on Monday following a miscellaneous application which would enable the prosecution time to conclude investigations into the incident.
A report at Muthaiga police station OB number 34/17/03/2019 indicated that Nyakundi had left his pistol loaded.
He allegedly pulled the trigger accidentally as he retrieved, killing his son, Joseph Nyakundi, who was in the back seat. He was reaching for the firearm to put it in the right pouch of his car.
