Four lawyers have launched an all-out attack on the Director of Criminal Investigations for seeking to have them charged over alleged loss of Sh284 million from the late Mbiyu Koinange’s estate.

The petition by Evans Monari, Justry Nyaberi, Beatrice Kariuki and Alice Wahome to block the Director of Public Prosecutions from prosecuting them has added more twist to the unending dispute for the control of the late Cabinet minister’s multi-billion-shilling estate, which has been pending in court for the past 36 years.
