A case in which a matatu driver has been charged with obstruction and driving without due care leading to the death of one person was delayed for one hour as a traffic officer who had come to testify looked for a necktie.

Kennedy Wainaina has been accused of parking his bus at an undesignated place along the Thika Superhighway near Githurai 45, causing the accident which killed Everesto Mwaura, also a matatu driver, after he hit the bus from behind on May 1 last year.
