Businessman Philip Aroko, who was under arrest over the murder of Kasipul MP Charles Ong’ondo Were in April, has been freed from custody and will now become a state witness.
Mr Aroko was among 11 people who were arrested following the April 30 murder of the MP and has been in custody as police conducted investigations into the killing. He had initially been freed on Sh300,000 cash bail but was re-arrested placed in custody.
