Photos have emerged of former television presenter and actress Regina Re following her arrest over the death of her 86-year-old mother at their family residence in Nairobi.
The other two suspects are Regina's daughter, Thandie Malaika Wanjiku Gitao, and her brother, Jimmy Macharia.
Meanwhile, investigators have announced plans to release Immanuel Walgwe Munyeki, who was Thandie's boyfriend, after witness accounts reportedly confirmed the information he provided during questioning.
Dorita Lasinder Macharia was discovered dead inside her house at Loresho Ridge Estate in Nairobi on the night of October 30, 2026.
The discovery is said to have upset the elderly woman, who ordered Thandie to move out of the house and return the room keys. She also instructed other visitors who were at the residence to leave.
Dorita later contacted her son, Jimmy, seeking his assistance in getting her granddaughter out of the property.
Although Thandie reportedly left at first, detectives said she later came back and spent some time with her grandmother.
The elderly woman was subsequently discovered lying in a pool of blood, while her granddaughter allegedly rushed outside screaming that she was bleeding.
Further details have emerged following a postmortem examination conducted by government pathologist Dr Bernard Midia.
Detectives are continuing with their enquiries, including collecting evidence to establish what happened before and during the fatal incident.
The three family members remain under investigation and have not been convicted of the murder.
