Aisha Jumwa writes to DPP seeking to be witness in a muder case against her

State Prosecutor Vivian Kambaga confirmed receipt of Magolo's letter in September. She said the letter was forwarded to the ODPP and feedback will be issued once Jumwa's actions have been considered.

"We confirm that in September, we received a letter to have the second accused considered as a State witness and that she was in negotiations with the family of the deceased on the matter," said Kambaga.

The prosecutor said the letter indicates that Aisha was in negotiations with the family which wishes to settle the matter out of court.

"The family wishes to have the matter settled out of court because she was not a principle offender in the case and was not armed and did not shoot the deceased," said Kambaga.

Jola was shot dead on October 15, 2019, after chaos broke out at the home of Mr Reuben Katana, who was an ODM candidate in the Ganda ward by-election in Kilifi County.
