Ms Wambui was killed in Ms Wangui’s house on January 26, and the postmortem found that she suffered nine killer blows to the head. She was hit using a pressure cooker before being suffocated.
Mr Mathenge, a car-hire services operator, led police to a thicket in Ruiru where Ms Wambui’s body was recovered.
Ms Wangui and Mr Mathenge have denied killing Ms Wambui, an offence they allegedly committed on the night of January 26, 2019, at Four Ways Junction Estate on the Kiambu-Nairobi Road.
Justice Christine Meoli had ordered the two to deposit cash bail of Sh2 million each, to secure their release.
