Journalist accused of murder arrested for contempt of court

By Moses Kurian

NAIROBI, KENYA: Freelance Journalist Dola Moses arrested at Milimani law court after warrant of arrest was issued by David Majanja Jan 6.

He skipped a mention date in a case where he is alleged to have killed former NTV broadcaster Wambui Kabiru.

He had been on a cash bail of Sh 500,000 which prosecutor Catherine Mwaniki had urged the court to deny Dola the bail on grounds that he is a flight risk, may abscond court and may interfere with witnesses.

Dola is believed to have strangled Kabiru by either using his bare hands or a cloth. Her neck was swollen when police broke into the bedroom where the body was found.

They had a boy aged two and half who was in the house with a house girl as his mother was being killed.
