The High Court has pushed lawyer Willie Kimani’s murder trial to tomorrow after informer Peter Ngugi’s lawyer failed to show up in court citing ill health.
The State had lined up Chief Inspector Robert Owino and employees of two telcos – Safaricom and Airtel to appear as witnesses. However, Ngugi’s lawyer, Kevin Michuki asked the court to adjourn to enable him seek medical attention. Justice Jessie Lesiit heard that no other lawyer could stand in for Michuki, as his wish was to personally handle Ngugi’s case.
