World Rally Championship (WRC) category 3 winner at last year’s Safari Rally Maxine Wahome is reportedly being investigated for murder in the case against boyfriend Asad Khan.
According to Daily Nation, state prosecutor James Gachoka told Milimani senior principal magistrate Bernard Ochoi that circumstances in the matter have changed following the death of Khan in December, days after he was taken to hospital with serious injuries after an alleged night of altercation between the two.

“Maxine is now being investigated for murder and grievous harm (she was previously under investigation for the latter) I request the matter to be mentioned in 14 days,” Gachoka said.
Khan’s family is represented by sought after lawyer Cliff Ombeta who says they have written to the DPP for the investigating officer to explore further some areas the family need to be covered.
Ochoi directed the case to be mentioned on 30 January 30 for further directions.
The late Khan was reportedly injured by Maxine on Jamhuri Day after she allegedly returned home drunk from a dinner party she had attended on the night of December 11.
Police arrested Maxine for grievous harm, but she was released on a Ksh 100,000 cash bail.
