There was a light moment in court on Thursday when a city woman arrested for suspected drunk driving was caught sleeping and snoring during court proceedings.
The woman had been arraigned before Magistrate Martha Nanzushi to answer to the charge of driving under the influence of alcohol but when her name was called out, she was sleeping in court.
She was snoring loudly which made the magistrate inquire from the orderlies about the person who was snoring in court.
“Is that someone snoring in my court?” the magistrate asked.
The police officer who arrested her told the court that it was the accused who was snoring.
According to the charge sheet, it is alleged that she was arrested today morning at 7.35 am along Ngong road.
She was driving a Mercedes Benz when she was arrested.
She is expected to be charged anytime Thursday afternoon when the court resumes after the break.
