Omar Lali and his family broke down to tears on Thursday, July 16, as the court declared him a free man.
This comes following his arrest on Tuesday by a Lamu Court on the belief that enough evidence had been found against him in the murder of the late Keroche heiress.
Yesterday, July 15, the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) had ordered a mental assessment be done on Omar Lali to ascertain that he was in good mental state, fit to stand trial.
