Rally driver Maxine Wahome was Wednesday, March 15 charged with the murder of her late boyfriend Assad Khan.
It is alleged that on December 12 at Preston Apartments on Oloitoktok Road, Kileleshwa in Nairobi she murdered Asad Khan.
She denied the charge before Justice Lilian Mutende.
The prosecution asked the court to remand her to Langata Women’s prisons.
Her lawyer Philip Murgor asked the court to allow them to argue the bail application Wednesday.
The plea was taken virtually after Murgor withdrew the application seeking a physical court appearance.
She was being detained at Kilimani cells.
Justice Mutende directed that a pre-bail report be filed in court.
The bail application will be heard on Tuesday next week and in the meantime, she will be taken to Langata Women prisons remand.
Khan died on December 18 about six days after his admission at the Avenue hospital after he lost blood out of injuries.
Khan had been admitted there after losing lots of blood following injuries he suffered in his Kileleshwa house in an altercation with Maxine
According to Khan’s brother Adil, his brother was injured by Maxine after she allegedly returned home drunk from a dinner party she had attended.
Maxine told police Khan was injured in an altercation with her after she came home late in the morning.
She added he broke a window pane that injured him in the ankle as she hid on a balcony.
She is the daughter of another motorsport legend, Jimmy Wahome, and she rose through the motoring ranks to become the first Kenyan woman to score points in the World Rally Championship-supported junior category when she won the WRC3 category for drivers aged 27 and below in June this year behind the wheel of a Ford Fiesta R3.
WRC has since withdrawn its support of Maxine.
