” I request the court to dismiss the purported medical documents and issue a warrant of arrest against the first accused person, the document does not tell the kind of illness the accused person is suffering from or whether she is bedridden or not” said Samson Ng’etich the prosecution.
According to the court papers, the accused persons are out on Sh 10,000 cash bail with a surety of the same amount.
