BORROWED FROM JUKWAA:
http://jukwaa.proboards.com/thread/9258/meshack-yebei-final-clean-operationsIt's grim stuff, but there have been one or two jokes that ought to lighten up things. For example, Karim Khan actually asked the Kenyan Police to
investigate something! Do they have the first idea of how to go about that? In fact, the QC has asked for a "
thorough, timely and vigorous" investigation! What a funny man.
Never mind ... Mr. Khan, so far is not impressed. And perhaps there have been some tiny omissions or sloppiness in what exactly the Kenyan media has been reporting.
Mr. Khan, Q.C. states that.
"
I wrote a confidential letter to the Director of CID in Kenya requesting that certain investigations be conducted, relevant to the incident. I was dismayed and gravely concerned that this confidential communication found its way into the press. I have requested an urgent inquiry into the circumstances of thisleak."http://www.scribd.com/doc/252502987/Statement-by-Karim-A-A-Khan-QC-Lead-Counsel-for-H-E-William-Ruto-regarding-the-reported-abduction-and-murder-of-Mr-Meshak-Yebei#scribdWelcome to Kenya, friend. Next time bring some chicken, if you want things done "right".
Mr. Kahn then gets very worked about the OTP's statement to the effect that Yebei was involved in corrupting witnesses and writes as though Yebei (and, by implication, Ruto) were already in the dock for that one:
"
For example, on a date a key prosecution witness claimed Mr. Yebei was in Nairobi in a meeting relating to alleged witness interference, Mr. Yebei told the Prosecution he was in Eldoret. The Defence obtained full hospital records demonstrating that Mr. Yebei had, in fact, been hospitalised in Eldoret on the day in question, and had been there the day before, as well as the day after the alleged meeting in Nairobi. This information and evidence was disclosed to the Prosecution by the Defence well before Mr. Yebei's disappearance."According to reports by
The Daily Nonsense and
The Stunted, one would get the impression that Mr. Yebei had definitely been threatened by a prosecution witness and that Mr. Khan had informed the OTP of that,
months ago. Not quite so. Mr. Khan only claims that he "recently" learned that the OTP had been "on notice" for months on that matter. From who did he learn? He doesn't say. When is "recently"? We are not told. Who put the OTP "on notice"? He doesn't say, but it is apparent that it was
not Mr.Khan, Q.C.:
"
."
This is a man who is very worried about something. What? Who knows.
Anyways, after raving and ranting away on all open fronts, Mr. Kahn, Q.C., has some excellent advice for everyone:
"
Everyone should refrain from unnecessary public speculation and inflammatory comments at this time".
And there you have it.
