Rally driver Maxine Wahome to undergo mental test before trial

Rally driver Maxine Wahome was today arraigned before the High Court to face murder charges over the death of her lover Assad Khan.

Justice Lilian Mutende on Tuesday ordered Wahome to be detained at the DCI offices in Kilimani before she is formally charged on March 15. The judge directed to escort Wahome to Mathari Mental Hospital on March 14 for her mental assessment.

The deceased family through Lawyer Danstan Omari and Cliff Ombeta had sought to be availed with the outcome of the investigations conducted by the DCI before the investigation file can be closed.

Wahome has been under investigation by the DCI detectives since December last year after her boyfriend Khan was admitted in Nairobi hospital and later transferred to Avenue hospital where he succumbed.
