Wanjiku said the occupants of the car alleged to have been sent to repair furniture which had broken. After ending the call, Njoki returned to church only to receive a call at around 1.30 pm from a neighbour.

Her neighbour, Margret Nyambura told her their house was on fire prompting her to rush home.

"At home, I was met with a crowd trying to put out the fire, and when I asked about my daughter, I was taken to the neighbor's house without any answer, at around 3 pm, I was notified that the body of my daughter had been recovered from the fire," she said.

Her house was razed and the remote, television, airtime, cash and Mpesa float of Sh2,000, were missing.

Later she was called to the police station to identify some items among them his son's shoes, techno phone, and headphones.

The prosecution has lined up 12 witnesses to testify against the six suspects.

Michori, Otieno, Juma, and Omondi, were denied bond after the court heard that they were flight risk.

Mmolo and Kinyanjui were each released on a bond of Sh2 million with a surety of a similar amount.

The case will be heard on May 29.
