Slain lawyer Robert Chesang’s widow now wants to be allowed to bury him on their land in Kajiado. Pauline Omungala on Monday asked the Chief Magistrate’s Court in Machakos to block the Chesang’s relatives from burying him without her consent. Yesterday, Machakos senior principal magistrate Kipchumba Kenei allowed the prosecution to detain her for 27 more days as investigations continue. Mochogu had argued that the first accused does not appear before court as a judicial officer and, therefore, should be treated as such. I therefore order that all the accused persons be taken for mental examination at Mathare Teaching and Referral Hospital,” the magistrate said.
