Form being a witness to a key suspect, Citizen TV’s Jacque Maribe murder fairy-tale continues to pick different dimensions.
Police have confirmed that Maribe whose’s fiancee Joseph Irungu is already in custody over the same case, that she too will be a guest of the state in police cells.
Below are the some the findings police have found to link Maribe to the brutal murder of Monica Kimani who was found dead on September 20th, 2018.
- Maribe has to answer tough questions on why her phone was said to have been used at the crime scene- Monica’s house
- Jacky Maribe has also been accused of giving information that does match with police findings.
- After the very night of murder, the couple gave conflicting info over the shooting of the husband, at first they claimed they were shot at by thugs, later said they were unknown gunmen
- Still, where where treatment took place does not match up. They couple gave three hospitals on different accounts where they sought treatment (Why would Jowie go all the way to Nairobi West Hospital and leave St Mary’s Hospital which is nearer? What exactly is he being treated for in Kijabe? Who is the victim here)
- Monica Kimani’s purse was located inside Maribe’s house with 6M cash bundle
- Still, police indicate that Maribe set on fire clothes (Kanzu) Jowi used at Monica’s house
- Maribe’s house-help is in police hands and her accounts may just pin them down if at all they planned murder without involving the maid.
- Live bullets were also found under her bed, police report indicate
- Maribe hired a prominent murder case lawyer- Cliff Ombetta who is also representing Migori Governor Okoth Obado. Ombetta also represented Katwa Kigen murder suspect among others
- Jowi borrowed Jacky Maribe’s neighbors gun which is said to have shot himself with. After the alleged gun attack on Jowi, the matter ws not immediately reported to police.
If found guilty by the court, Maribe could be charged with either murder, or abetting murder which simply means to command, procure, counsel, encourage, induce, or assist a murder.
