Malindi MP Aisha Jumwa and her co-accused Geoffrey Otieno are set to formally take murder plea in Mombasa on Thursday. The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions last week okayed a murder charge against Jumwa over the killing of a man during last year's Ganda Ward by-election. The ODPP through its Mombasa Regional Head Alloys Kemo, approved murder and assault charges against Jumwa and Otieno over the fatal shooting of the man and injury of several people during the poll. The man was shot in the shoulder and killed during the chaos and several other people, including police officers, were injured.
