He is being held at Kilimani  Police Station. In his defence, Babu insists the gun drama was triggered by an attempt on his life by his political opponents. In a statement, the MP said he had been receiving threats, prompting him to speak about it in public and report the same to the police. “I have been receiving threats against my life and even reported an attempted assassination at the Parliament Police Station under OB number OB21/17/11/2019. I have been living under the weight of intimidation and threats,” he said. The MP said he was surrounded by aggressive individuals while he was in the company of his friends at the club, leading to an exchange of fire. “While enjoying the company of my friends at a popular Nairobi restaurant, I was surrounded by a large group of aggressive individuals. In the melee, there was an exchange of gunfire,” read the statement. Owino has appealed to the police to investigate the matter to find out who were the individuals who attacked him and what was their motive. His lawyer Cliff Ombeta said the MP reacted after aggressive people approached him as if they wanted to harm him. "The MP realised the guy who was shot was one of his close friends and rushed him to hospital," he said, adding that the incident was regrettable.
