Kasarani woman who was pushed off from the second-floor apartment by boyfriend in Kasarani after a fight with her boyfriend has withdrawn the case, takes blame for the incident.
According to new police reports, Cynthia Mboya said she had since forgiven her lover and his cousin for the incident and did not want to pursue the case further.
“She said she did not wish to proceed with the matter because she had not broken any bone. She only had muscle pains which she claimed she was managing with medications issued in hospital,” a police report quoted by Nairobi News indicated.
Hence, the suspects were freed as a result of her statement.
According to The People Daily, a former CS called the station’s senior police officers and instructed them to “guarantee that the two are assisted.”
The police are still conducting their inquiries despite Mboya’s withdrawal of the case.
