Matrimonial homeWairimu, through her lawyer, told the court that together with Cohen, they owned the property situated at Farasi Lane, Mugumoini Close, Lower Kabete that was purchased on June 7, 2000, and registered in her husbandโ€™s name, by mutual agreement.

Wairimu says that the property was their matrimonial home for 12 years.Last month, Wairimu made another application seeking to have her house in Kitisuru back.Through lawyer Philip Murgor, Wairimu told the court that she cannot understand why the prosecution wants to keep her house, which is not part of the evidence.

โ€œThe prosecution has failed to respond to our application dated November 12, 2019, in which my client is seeking to have her house and other possessions back,โ€ said Murgor.Murgor added that Wairimu also needs clothes, shoes and a car parked outside the house that has been cordoned off as a crime scene. He said unless the police have other motives with the house, it should be released back to Wairimu.
