The former musician was wheeled into the operating theatre on Monday morning having been booked for the surgery on Sunday 27th June.
Speaking to a local media house, fellow musician and DK Kwenye Beat revealed that Jaguar had dealt with the recurring knee pains for a while and at one point sought medical treatment in India.

"You are a fighter and nothing can keep you down," DK Kwenye Beat captioned the video " Fight the time and have a complete and swift recovery."

Jaguar first broke his leg in July 2018 after attempting to intervene in a protest at Marikiti Market. Traders at the market were protesting harassment by Nairobi City County officials.
Police lobbed teargas to disperse the protesters and Jaguar suffered a fracture on his right knee while running away.
He was rushed to Karen Hospital where the knee was plastered up but has seemingly never quite healed.
