The suspect in the murder of Ida Odinga's bodyguard Collins Oulo Okundi will Monday appear in court for further directions after being detained for 14 days.
Kisumu senior resident magistrate Stella Telewa had ordered the case be mentioned on October 31.
This was to be done to also confirm if the suspect's request when he appeared before the court after his arrest were adhered to.
The suspect had requested to be taken to the hospital and to a dentist saying he was having a problem with his wrist and had toothache.
"I have a problem with my teeth and right wrist too. I would like to be taken to hospital for treatment," he told the court.
The suspect had been detained two weeks ago following an application by the prosecution seeking more time to complete the investigations.
According to the prosecutor John Oyimbo, the suspect who had fled the scene of the crime was arrested in Eldoret.
"It's worth noting that he was brought to Kisumu this morning. DCI in Kisumu have not had a chance to initiate any investigation," he said.
He added that the suspect was a flight risk and should remain in custody.
"Statement of the witness at the scene is yet to be recorded. The individual who was at the scene was shot and is currently receiving treatment," he said.
"We ask the court to grant us the 14 days to enable the DCI conclusively investigate the matter."
This was supported by ODPP 's Mina Opiyo who noted that the release of the respondent would jeopardise the investigation.
The suspect did not however object to the application.
