Hearing of Monicah Kimani's murder cases against Jowie and Maribe moved to January

Jackie Maribe and her ex-fiance Jowie Irungu can rest easy after the High Court once again postponed the judgement of their case.

The duo were charged over the murder of late businesswoman Monica Kimani to January 26.

Trial Judge Grace Nzioka was to deliver the judgement today but told parties that she received the exhibits which are crucial in helping her determine the case as late as yesterday.

This is the second time the judgment has been postponed.

The first time the Judge was indisposed.

"I took time to write the judgement. We've made progress. But on Monday I discovered that when the file was sent to me not all exhibits were sent to me," the judge said.

The Judge said even after making requests for them to be sent on Monday, she got to receive them on Thursday at 7 o'clock. They came in three sacks.

Before the new dates were settled on, Jowie had pleaded with the court to grant him an earlier date. He requested for January 21 and Maribe on the other hand requested for a date in January.

The parties subsequently agreed to have the judgement delivered on January 26.
