Nepal and Karuturi
Helping Jawalkhel Youth Club to a three-match winning streak in the Nepal National League,[3] Biketi's club descended to fourth place by the end of the season, accruing 16 points in total.[4] Alongside Gerald Mukonza, the defender was poised to join Karuturi Sports F.C. in January 2012[5] but the transfer was delayed because Biketi was still competing for promotion in the play-offs for Jawalkhel Youth Club.[6] Ultimately, by late February, the Kenyan sealed the move,[7] making his debut in a 2–0 victory over Chemelil Sugar F.C. in which he was complimented by his coach.[8] Before his debut, Biketi was supposed to have adapted to the clubs style of play and environment.[9]
