AdvertisementAs he challenged his sacking in court, Mr Idriss was among the people who vigorously campaigned for the election of Mr Korane ahead of the 2017 polls. The bad blood between Mr Idriss and Mr Korane was cited by the former’s family when he was shot at his Kileleshwa house on the night of August 19, 2018. But Mr Korane, in an interview with the Nation, denied ever plotting to harm Mr Idriss, saying he had nothing to gain from such an act. Lawyer Charles Kanjama, who has been representing Mr Idriss, recently took to Twitter to complain that his client has been denied justice as no criminal proceedings ever began after Mr Idriss' shooting and the death of the prime suspect. As Mr Idriss fights for his life, his family will consider Friday’s ruling a boost in their quest for justice.
