Catholic priest Dominic Wamugunda wants the High Court to overturn an order by a lower court that he pays Sh25,000 monthly upkeep for a child whose paternity he has disputed.

Father Wamugunda, who has denied fathering the 12-year-old girl, has asked High Court judge Maureen Odero to suspend the magistrate's ruling that requires him to pay the money.
