By FAITH NYAMAIMore by this AuthorChief Justice David Maraga has cautioned newly admitted lawyers against engaging in corrupt deals while handling cases saying he will not entertain delinquency in courts. Justice Maraga noted that complaints against lawyers from the public on corruption allegation are on the rise and urged the newly admitted lawyers to champion for a corrupt free working relationship with their clients. Last week, Advocates Complaints Commission (ACC) complained that the number of cases being reported by the public against lawyers are on the rise. “This country expects you to help in the fight against corruption and therefore none of you should engage in corruption,” the CJ told the newly admitted lawyers. This was the highest admission as normally, the number of lawyers admitted at a time range from about 150.
