Dennis Itumbi has staged a drama at Milimani law courts protesting delay of release of his friend and ‘sister’ Jacque Maribe. He says officials from the court registrar and ODPP were taking individuals processing Maribe’s documents to facilitate release round circles.
Maribe’s defense team concluded their assignment and the work of processing her release is now left to her family and friends as her lawyers move to another assignment.
Basically what Itumbi and co are experiencing is the standard procedure, same as wht the former Youth Affairs PS Lilian Mbogo Omolo went through despite her alleged relations with the Kenyattas in the Kenyan diaspora.
Well, the impatience of Itumbi and Maribe is understandable; it’s been a month since she was taken to custody custody!!
THREAD: Interesting events at the Deputy Registrar in the High Court. We completed the bond process for our friend Jacque Maribe at 12pm and till now no progress & she is looking at another night in prison despite being freed by The Court yesterday. Let me tell you of the games

Yesterday, the same games were employed. The Deputy Registrar declined to sign the letter commiting documents to land registry and registrar of persons yesterday. We decided to wait for today

This morning family and friends reported at the High Court at 7am and the Deputy Registrar signed a letter that was on her desk from last evening at 11am. No problem with that, we can live with that….

Problem is after that we were told there is an order that "UPON release the investigating officer and the advocate will take an inventory of house" we argued that is UPON release. So they dropped that line…

Next we needed a prosecutor from @ODPP_KE and obviously none was willing to get on record. So we decided to tweet.

Just after the first tweet the calls that were not being picked by @DCI_Kenya and @ODPP_KE officials are now being returned quick and fast…..Asanteni
