Hannah Wacuka, Mwathi’s mother is appealing for justice for his son Jeff Mwathi.

The grief-stricken mother says they were frequently in touch with her son until the moment his phone went off.

“We used to talk a lot. We were friends, there’s nothing he’d hide from me,” Hannah said.

Peter Kirumba, Mwathi’s father, says he wants justice for his son.

The deceased was to leave the country to further his studies this month.

“My son had not attempted to die by suicide in 2019 as alleged. They are lying,” Peter Kirumba, Mwathi’s father said.

Mwathi’s grandmother, Teresia Nyokabi, added that;

“Huyo mtoto alikuwa mnyenyekevu. Ukiangalia age ya Dj na age ya Mwathi, hiyo si age watapelekana club nne usiku mmoja. Naona vile alikuwa anamtembeza apoteze muda ili atimize alichotaka,” Teresia noted.

The family has called upon DCI officers to fast-track their investigations.

Mwathi fell to his death in DJ Fatxo's 10th-floor apartment located along Thika Road under unclear circumstances.

Reports show the victim had spent the day with the popular DJ.

"I have met with DJ Fatxo, and we are now along Kiambu road. He wanted me to design his shop, and we will talk about money tomorrow so that I can get started," he said.

He also sent his mother several videos from his day with Fatxo up until the last video he sent while at the DJ's apartment moments before his death.

CCTV footage also revealed that Fatxo, Mwathi, and three ladies went to his apartment after spending time together at three different clubs.

According to Mwathi's uncle, Fatxo and the three ladies left the house at around 4 am leaving Jeff in the house with two other men.

"The two men also left the house and went down to the parking, and looked over. Fatxo's cousin was also seen making a call, and then Jeff fell from the 10th floor," he said.

The family is now demanding justice, saying their son did not show any thoughts of harming himself, as the police were told.

According to the police report, Fatxo reported saying Mwathi jumped from an open window of his bedroom.

Kiss100.co.ke reached out to Fatxo but his phone number was off.
