Mitigation and sentencing of convicts in the Willie Kimani murder case will proceed at the Milimani Law courts.

Stephen Cheburet, Sylvia Wanjiku, and police informer Peter Ngugi were found guilty of the murder of lawyer Willie Kimani this year by Justice Jessie Lessit.

Officer Leonard Mwangi was, however, acquitted on all three counts of murder.

Willie, a lawyer working with International Justice Mission, was brutally murdered alongside his client Josephat Mwenda and taxi driver Joseph Muiruri on June 23, 2016.

The three victims were abducted from their car as they left Mavoko law courts, where Willie had gone with Mwenda, his client.

Their bodies were later found dumped at the Oldonyo Sabuk River wrapped in black gunny bags.

According to police, after their abduction, they were held for a few hours at the Syokimau police post before they were taken to a field where they were killed.

In a separate case, a Former Norwegian refugee council security guard who was dismissed from work for threatening his area manager and inciting other staff to demonstrate has lost a bid to retain his job.

This is after the Employment court dismissed his case for lack of merit.

The security guard had been accused of being absent from a mandatory training, deleting security staff from the WhatsApp group and that he mobilised the community to demonstrate against the refugee council.
