Actress and former television host Regina Wambui Gitau, popularly known as Regina Re, and two other suspects will remain in police custody for two more working days as investigations into the murder of their 86-year-old mother continue.
Kibera Law Courts Magistrate Barbara Akinyi granted investigators additional time to detain the three suspects as police pursue inquiries into the death of Dorita Lasinder Macharia.
The prosecution had requested more time to complete investigations into the alleged murder.
However, the court ordered the release of another suspect, Immanuel Walgwe Munyeki, who had also been arrested in connection with the case.
Regina Re and the two other suspects will remain in custody during the additional investigation period, after which police are expected to determine whether to prefer charges against them.
The suspects have not been convicted of any offence.
