Director of Public Prosecutions Noordin Haji wants technology used in the investigation and prosecution of corruption-related cases for a speedy conclusion. In a statement on Saturday, he welcomed Chief Justice David Maraga and judges' resolve to expedite hearing graft cases. Haji appreciated the Judiciary for acknowledging the challenges the directorate experiences while building a formidable case. "....the DPP shall strongly advocate for the use of technology in the investigation, prosecution, and adjudication [of the cases] without compromising the right to a fair trial," he said. The officials also discussed how to clear the case backlogs and how to have judges and magistrates actively manage cases they handle.
