He was not intentionally displaying the weapon or brandishing it. It&#8217;s because his shirt went up and it was revealed. And I am surprised that the DCI says that it is upon us to determine what should be done to him,&#8221; said Mr Wahome.<\/p>\n<p><!--\/.outer-ad-container.responsive-aans-view-a-container--><\/p>\n<p class=\"story-body-text\" data-para-word-count=\"64\">&#8220;We do have internal self-regulatory mechanisms guided by our constitution. However, not all gun holders are members of the association. If a member comes at our shooting range and behaves unethical or uses his or her firearm carelessly then we take action. But over and above, if the person commits a criminal act then the law of the land will take effect,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-body-text\" data-para-word-count=\"1\">ARRESTED<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-body-text\" data-para-word-count=\"13\">Following the incident, DJ Moh Spice arrested and his firearm and ammunition confiscated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-body-text\" data-para-word-count=\"33\">However, the DJ was later released on police bond with no criminal charges, with the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) saying that he had no case to answer on accusation of firearm licensing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"story-body-text\" data-para-word-count=\"33\">The also revealed that the entertainer is a licensed firearm holder, stating that it is upon the National Gun Owners Association of Kenya to determine what to do with him being a member.<\/p>\n<p><!--\/.story-footer-link--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The controversial picture that landed popular Kenyan celebrity , DJ Moh in trouble Photo credit Nairobi Gossip Club.
