Former Deputy Chief Justice Nancy Baraza has blamed her colleagues at the Judiciary for orchestrating her exit.

In 2012, a tribunal formed to try Ms Baraza after allegations that she assaulted a security guard recommended her sacking.

Baraza later withdrew a plan to appeal the tribunal’s ruling and opted to resign saying she expected no justice from the Supreme Court.

Seven years later, Baraza says she was unfairly treated, and that some of her colleagues in the Judiciary and government have gotten away with worse things.

In an exclusive interview on KTN News’ Point Blank last night, Baraza who is now a senior law lecturer at the University of Nairobi, disclosed that she has since apologised to Rebecca Kerubo, the lady she was accused of assaulting at a shopping mall in Nairobi on December 31, 2011.

Describing the incident as “a security lapse’ on her side, Baraza however insisted her colleagues used the incident to target her with malice for being an “outsider.”  She argued that if the same high standards applied against her were used against all State officers, many would be in jail.

While recounting her dramatic ouster in 2012, Baraza, who served as the first deputy chief justice under the 2010 constitution, claimed it was maliciously orchestrated by her colleagues.
