“Efforts to summon the suspect to shed more light into the incident proved futile, as he remained elusive prompting detectives to launch a manhunt leading to his arrest on Madaraka Day, moments past midnight,” said the DCI.
Detectives also revealed that DJ Brownskin shared the video of Njeri ingesting the poisonous substance with a lover living abroad.
The alleged girlfriend then shared the video with an unidentified blogger who published the video in April.
Njeri is said to have died between July 29 and 30, last year.
