The trial of five suspects -- Fredrick Leliman, Stephen Cheburet Morogo, Sylvia Wanjohi, Leonard Maina Mwangi and Peter Ngugi alias Brown -- who are charged with killing rights lawyer Willie Kimani, has been adjourned after Mr Morogo contracted Covid-19.
Justice Jessie Lesiit put off the case against the four police officers and an informer to October 26, 2020, for further directions.
