[00:00:52]>> Our first thing is that this is between a husband and a wife.

[00:01:52]>> Yes.

[00:01:53]>> at least the one before court.

[00:01:56]So, as much as we will go to that to those details, I believe that I I was of the opinion that we restrict ourselves to the matter before this court.

[00:02:11]And I think the charges that are preferred here, whether there are other matters, it is the prerogative of an independent office that has led to the charges here.

[00:02:29]>> Yes, but >> to the court to make a decision about the same.

[00:03:23]And by the letter dated 8th of July 2026, the accused person herein be charged with the offense of assault contrary to section 251 of the Penal Code.

[00:03:39]Enough evidence to charge the suspect herein.

[00:03:48]On those grounds, your honor, So, I pray that the accused done uh they are allowed to run from publishing in different courts.

[00:04:01]And they various court they are allowed to make a determination depending on the evidence that will be tendered.

[00:04:09]>> There is no law known in Kenya that can gag media in covering court proceedings as long as the journalists uh can identify themselves in court.

[00:04:30]There is nothing special with this case.

[00:04:36]The mere fact that the suspect is a principal of a school is like any other Kenyan who has committed an offense.

[00:04:48]Therefore, I submit that the media be allowed to cover and report this matter as it ought to be done like any other matter.

[00:05:03]>> subject somewhere else, but I think he has also not been truthful to this court.

[00:05:09]It is not true that the protection of If you look at 8215, >> copies of the letters that my colleague has written because the DPP can supply to help you on making your >> Based on the above findings, the court therefore proceeds to dismiss the two applications and direct that the above matter proceeds for plea taking.

[00:06:02]You know that will be a very welcome considerate move from this court, sir.

[00:06:13]>> Yes, Mr. Kimani thanks to you.

[00:06:18]>> The complainant is being threatened by the accused person and using the children to intimidate the complainant including interfering with witnesses.

[00:06:44]There is evidence of an attempt on the IO who rejected advances on integrity issues.

[00:06:58]That is the reason why even though the offense is assault we are opposing bond because there are more chances of interfering with witnesses and writing [clears throat] cajoling messages to the complainant.

[00:07:22]And in the event that this court is inclined to grant bond terms to the accused person will the court help us to warn the accused person from interfering or even reaching out to the complainant despite their relations.

[00:07:48]unless granted by this court to initiate alternative dispute resolution mechanisms are there.

[00:08:18]>> No urgent evidence has been placed to this court including any proof from the IO.

[00:08:23]No further evidence has been tendered to show that there has been any compromise of the witnesses.

[00:08:28]The court proceeds to give the following directions. Number one, that the accused person is admitted to a bond of 200,000 with one surety or an alternative cash bail of 100,000.

[00:08:39]Number two, the accused person is given a warning not to interfere with any witnesses unless at the time parties may want to explore ADR resolution. A violation of order two or any other directions will lead to the cancellation of bail and bond terms. I want to give a mention before this court for pre-trial directions.
