On November 7, 2019, a psychiatric report found University of Nairobi lecturer Hannah Inyama unfit to stand trial over the death of her 13-year-old son, Emmanuel Solomon.

According to an investigating officer, Inyama was put on medication for a month and required to appear in hospital on November 29 to check her progress.

Magistrate Heston Nyaga released Inyama to her parents, who were in court, and ordered her to report to the police every Friday.

The matter will be mentioned on December 3 for further directions.

Emmanuel Solomon's body was found wrapped in a blanket at Inyama's house in Nairobi's South B estate, where she had invited church members to sing and praise God.

A post-mortem report showed that Emmanuel died of excessive bleeding in the stomach and had severe stomach ulcers that led to hemorrhage.
