Maribe, Irungu in the same dock at Milimani Law Courts

TV girl Jacque Maribe and her fiance Joseph Irungu alias Joe Jowie were on Tuesday October 9 produced at Milimani Law Courts in the same Court.

This follows Director of Public Prosecutions( DPP) Nordin Haji’s directions to have Irungu and Maribe immediately charged with murder of Sharon Kimani at the High Court.

The DPP ordered that Maribe and Irungu be immediately arraigned before the High Court and charged accordingly.

Jacque Maribe was arrested on September 30 and held at the Gigiri Police Station. Maribe’s fiancé Joseph Irungu had been seized five days earlier and was held in police custody at the Muthaiga station.

Monica was found dead at her apartment in Kilimani with the throat slit and hands tied.


More than 15 people were questioned in the probe. They include Bryan Kassaine who is the neighbour to Maribe and Irungu.

Kassaine had been arrested after it was established Irungu used his gun to try to commit suicide in their house at Royal Park estate, Langata after the murder of Monica.

Kassaine is now a state witness in the matter after the DPP failed to call for his prosecution.
