The family of popular video vixen Sarah Njogu popularly known as Sarah Gwan is seeking justice following her untimely death.
Sarah Gwan fell from the second-floor balcony of a building in Seasons, Kasarani. She was in the company of three friends,two women and one man.
Speaking in an interview with Citizen digital, her mother Mary Wanjiru said she received a call from St Francis Hospital, Kasarani, On June 25th informing her that her daughter, Sarah Njogu, had been admitted after a dangerous fall.
On arrival, she was confronted with the horrific sight of her daughter, Sarah Njogu, also known as Sarah Gwan, lying on a bed with blood oozing from her ears and a cut on her head.
Sarah was in critical condition, and the medical team quickly decided she needed to be transferred to Kenyatta National Hospital for more advanced care.
When her father arrived, he filed a formal complaint with the police and the three friends were arrested and taken into custody.
After four days of battling for her life, Sarah Gwan passed away at Kenyatta National Hospital on Saturday morning.
The three friends were released two days later on a Sh60,000 cash bail each.
The family disputes the friends' account, which insinuates that Sarah had intentionally thrown herself off the balcony.
Sarah’s mother denied that her daughter would have committed suicide.
"I know my daughter. She was the strongest woman in my household. Sarah began her independence quite early in life, as a very young girl. She was very strong at heart and a go-getter. There is no way Sarah would kill herself. That's not the Sarah I knew."
According to the mother, the friends haven't reached out or even expressed their condolences since their release.
"Since they were released, they've not attempted to reach out to us, to condole with us, to visit the family or even call us. In fact, they had sent someone with suggestions that we needed to meet and settle the case out of court. A proposal we declined,"
Sarah had appeared in multiple high-profile music videos. She had featured in songs by Redsan, Willy Paul, Bensoul, Ommy Dimpoz, Reckless and more.
The video vixen will be laid to rest on Saturday.
Condolences to the family and may her soul rest in peace.
