The mother of Jeff Mwathi is expected to testify today in the probe of his son's death.
The inquest will be heard by trial magistrate Zainab Abdul this morning where Anne Mwathi will testify.
Jeff passed on February 23, 2023, at Redwood apartment where rumors indicated that he had jumped from the 10th-floor flat at DJ Fatxo's home.
Jeff's family is represented by lawyer Danstan Omari while DJ Fatxo is represented by lawyer Duncan Okatch.
In August, the court was told that Jeff had tried to kill himself twice before he met his death on February 23.
Taking to the Stand, Jeff's uncle Muchoki Mwathi dismissed allegations that their son committed suicide.
Muchoki was being led in his testimony by lawyer Omari.
He said the Jeff he knew could not kill himself because apart from being his uncle they were very close friends who shared a lot.
"From the video, I saw Jeff’s body was discovered after Fatxo left an hour or so later. As a family we have lost a son who had a bright future ahead of him," Muchoki testified before Milimani principal magistrate Zainab Abdul.
Lawyer Okatch representing Fatxo tried to demonstrate to the court that Jeff was suicidal because of the bad relationship between his parents but Muchoki said he did not believe the family issues affected Jeff.
The lawyer added that there are witnesses who will testify that Jeff wanted to kill himself because of his parents' strenuous relationship.
However, Muchoki said he didn't know Jeff's relationship with DJ Fatxo but one time he told him Fatxo had given him a shop to design and they were supposed to do it together.
The prosecution will call 34 witnesses to testify.
