The Court of Appeal has dismissed the appeal lodged by infamous Githurai killer cop Katitu who wanted to be acquitted of a murder charge. Titus Ngamau Musila, alias Katitu, was sentenced in 2018 by Justice James Wakiaga to serve a 15-year jail term for killing a young man he alleged to be a robber. Katitu moved to the Court of Appeal challenging the conviction. However, Justices William Ouko, Fatuma Sichale and Sankale Ole Kantai on Friday agreed with the High Court’s ruling that Katitu indeed killed Kenneth Mwangi. The judges also noted that in his appeal, Katitu never challenged his 15-year sentence, saying even though it's unusual, they choose not to interfere with it.
