Mugo claimed that she spotted two vehicles following her, one of which she identified as a Subaru, which then obstructed her car and caused her driver to come to a halt.
The detective claimed that four men armed with AK47 guns approached their car, ransacked them, before ordering her out of the vehicle.
One of the attackers retreated to one of their vehicles to fetch a crude weapon, which he used in the vicious attack on Mugo.
