Ms Anne Wambere Ngirita, one of the accused in the Sh8 billion NYS scandal, has complained of starvation in cell.
Ms Ngirita raised the issue when she attended a pre-trial conference on the their cases at the Milimani Law Courts on Wednesday.
Through lawyer Cliff Ombeta, she told the anti-corruption court in Nairobi that the last time she had a meal was Sunday.
And in an exclusive interview with the Nation, Ms Ngirita, who first appeared in court carrying a baby, said she has been surviving on the samosas a relative brought her.
“How can we follow these proceedings when we are hungry? We are starving," she said.
Authorities at Lang’ata Prison in Nairobi, she said, do not want them to raise the issue in court.
"We are being treated as if we have been convicted,” another woman in the case said.
Mr Ombeta sought the issue to the court’s attention when his clients appeared before Chief Magistrate Douglas Ogoti.
He wanted the magistrate to order that the suspects be given biscuits and water before the case starts.
However, the magistrate did not give any directions on the issue.
Instead, Mr Ogoti directed that the pre-trial conference proceed.

Well, judiciary should address this issue for everyone - not ngirita only - but good for them to raise this issues - our prisons and police cells need to be modernize. We have to respect the rights of the accused.

There were times when the opposition detainees used to complain of bad food and nobody paid them any attention. Hopefully if this war on corruption goes on, we may have even more high level government officials go to jail and complain. There is always an upside to everything.

Either Matiangi or Kiunjuri is headed to the slammer. We should see the issues Moody Awoori tried to address and was jeered being raised afresh.
My money is on Matiangi since he is of no use to the three Demons: Uhuru, Raila and Ruto. He is a Liability to Uhuru; An impediment to Bill and an old enemy to Raila. Finally the 3 have something they agree on. Like I have always said when two or more demons agree on anything and that things happens to be you, find God in a hurry!

Hilarious picture when you consider the subject matter.
Omollo,
Welcome back. I am waiting for your take on the handshake.

Matiangi is un-touchable. Kiunjuri is on his way down - I don't know what he did or said...but something flipped btw him & UhuRuto.

I don’t like her look of defiance. It’s almost like she knows it’s all a charade.
We are chasing 486M out of 9B. Who’s fooling who
