The charge sheet further reads, “That the investigations will also require forwarding of a Ceska pistol serial number B 022713 with a magazine of 11 rounds of 9mm that were found in the Respondent’s compound in a motor vehicle registration number KBR 257 S Toyota Allion, to the ballistics expert for analysis.”
The DCI is also set to determine whether the firearm found at his home is licensed through an inquiry from the Chief Firearms Licensing Officer.
The prosecution wants him held for 14 days to allow police to conclude investigations.
Sudi surrendered to the police at Langas Police Station in Eldoret after he had reportedly gone into hiding.

“As a law abiding citizen I have presented myself at Langas Police Station early this morning even before the officers arrive. It was unnecessary to be treated with a lot of drama by sending contingent of police officers to my home. I was away the time police arrived at my place. Thank you all for standing with me,” he posted on Facebook.
He was accompanied by MPs Didmus Barasa, Caleb Kostany, Cornelius Serem, Governor Stephen Sang and Uasin Gishu Woman Representative Gladys Shollei.
