Corruption cases will be heard within two days of suspects being charged without room for adjournment, Chief Justice David Maraga has said. Maraga said on Monday that he intends to gazette strict directions for the speedy hearing and conclusion of economic crime cases. But he noted that the war against corruption needs multi-faceted efforts from the police, EACC and the DPP. Maraga was addressing the Mombasa Law Society's centennial celebrations, which also marked the retirement of long-serving judges John Mweru and Anyara Emukhule. Maraga said the committee, chaired by Justice Msagha Mbogholi, has engaged with stakeholders in preparation for the conduct of next year's polls.
