“Lawyers for Mr Kamau have not told you he has a pending appeal yet to be heard,” Mr Moimbo added. Mr Muteti also noted that the proper place to challenge the case is the Anti-Corruption Court. In July, Chief Magistrate Douglas Ogoti directed Mr Kamau to raise the objection to his fresh trial at the pre-trial stage on January 24, 2019. “The proper forum to challenge the admissibility of the case is not the constitutional court,” Mr Muteti said. Mr Kamau had been charged alongside two engineers - Messrs Mwangi Maingi and Nicholas Ndung’u Mwangi - with abuse of office over the redesigning of the road in Bungoma County.
