Lawyer Muite’s venture that could see KEBS boss behind bars

Lawyer Paul Muite now wants the Kenya Bureau of Standard Acting Managing director Benard Nguyo behind bars.

Muite says that Nguyo disobeyed orders requiring him to conduct a fresh testing of Fertilizer.

In his application, Muite told Senior Principal Magistrate Kennedy Cheruiyot, that the MD has repeatedly disobeyed orders issued by the court in January.

β€œThe court ordered that the sampling of the Fertilizer should be conducted on 20 February and re-testing be done on 21 February 2019. The parties flew to Mombasa for the exercise, but the MD was absent thus halting the exercise,” he said.

He said that there was no reason advanced from the office of the Director of Public Prosecution as to why the order had not been obeyed.

Muite submitted that the prosecution initially conducted the testing of the fertilizer in the absence of the accused and stated that it should jointly be carried out the testing to evaluate the validity of the evidence held by the prosecution.

The trial court will deliver its ruling on Wednesday 6.

The court had directed the testing be done in the presence of all the accused and an Interdependent laboratory, the samples be taken and testing be conducted on 21 February 2019.
