A Magistrates court is set to hear a case in which seven people are accused of violently robbing two women on the same night they allegedly murdered former Kabete MP George Muchai.
In the High Court, the accused persons are facing a separate charge of killing Muchai, his two bodyguards Samuel Kailikia and Samuel Matanta, and his driver Stephen Wambugu on February 7, 2015, on Kenyatta Avenue, in Nairobi.
Before a magistrate’s court, they are facing multiple robberies with violence charges in which two sisters Gladys Waithera and Irene Muthoni are complainants.
Waithera and Muthoni were allegedly carjacked before the former MP was killed.
The two sisters were also witnesses in the murder trial.
Eric Isabwa, Raphael Kimani, Mustapha Kimani, Stephen Astiva, Jane Wanjiru, Margaret Njeri and Simon Wambugu have denied the 10 counts of robbery with violence charges involving six other victims.
The case used to proceed at City Hall court but was moved to the Milimani Law Courts.
The courts have since found that the seven have a case to answer after the prosecution presented 36 witnessed to prove its case.
They will now be required to defend themselves from the accusations levelled against them.
