Lawrence Warunge, the chief suspect in the murder of his parents and siblings, is not fit to stand trial.
A medical assessment done at Mathari National Teaching and Referral Hospital shows that Lawrence suffers from induced psychosis, a condition characterised by hallucinations and/or delusions.
It further states that he has a history of smoking marijuana and drinking alcohol.
The prosecution tabled the report yesterday before Kiambu Chief Magistrate Patricia Gichohi and made an application for extension of custodial orders, which the Chief Magistrate granted.
