Babu Owino Freed From DJ Evolve’s Shooting Case

Embakasi East Member of Parliament Babu Owino has been acquitted of charges in the shooting of Felix Orinda, also known as DJ Evolve.

The decision was made by Senior Principal Magistrate Bernard Ochoi at the Milimani Law Courts. Ochoi ruled that the prosecution had failed to provide sufficient evidence to prove that Owino was the one who shot DJ Evolve.

The prosecution had alleged that Owino shot DJ Evolve at a club in Nairobi in January 2020. However, the court found that the prosecution’s evidence was weak.

For example, the prosecution did not have a medical report to prove that DJ Evolve was shot. They also did not have a ballistics report to prove that the bullet that injured DJ Evolve came from Owino’s gun.

In addition, DJ Evolve himself testified that he did not see Owino shoot him. He said that he was shot by someone he did not know.

Based on this evidence, the court found Owino not guilty of the charges against him.

This is a significant victory for Owino, who has been fighting these charges for over two years. It is also a setback for the prosecution, which has been unable to secure a conviction in this case.

The case has been closely watched by Kenyans, who are divided on whether or not Owino is guilty. Some people believe that he is innocent, while others believe that he is guilty and is getting away with a crime.

The acquittal of Owino is likely to further polarize public opinion on this case. It remains to be seen whether the prosecution will appeal the decision.
