Former TV presenter Jacque Maribe and her former fiancé Joseph Irungu alias Jowie will this morning know their fate in the murder of businesswoman Monicah Kimani who was killed more than five years ago.

The 28-year-woman was murdered in her Lamuria Garden apartment in Kilimani area, on the night of September 19, 2018 after arriving in the country from South Sudan.

Maribe and Irungu were put on their defence by trial judge Grace Nzioka after hearing evidence from more than 35 witnesses. The duo were charged on October 15, 2018 with the murder of Kimani.

Although the defence lawyers argued that there was no evidence linking them to the commission of the crime, the prosecution maintained that the two had a common intention and ‘acted in concert to eliminate the deceased’

The prosecution added Ms Maribe did not attempt to disassociate herself from the actions of Jowie and instead assisted him in destroying the evidence.

If found guilty of murder, the two could be sentenced to death, jailed for the rest of their lives or slapped with prison terms.
