After hearing testimonies from 42 witnesses, the trial of Okoth Obado has wrapped up. The extensive proceedings have captivated public attention, with witnesses providing various accounts related to the charges against Obado. The trial has been a significant event, reflecting the judicial process’s thoroughness in addressing high-profile cases.
Immediately following the closure of the trial, lead defence lawyer, Senior Counsel Kioko Kilukumi, addressed Justice Cecilia Githua, stating that he would submit for no case to answer in favor of Obado. Kilukumi’s announcement indicates the defense’s position that the prosecution has not provided sufficient evidence to warrant a conviction. This critical phase in the legal proceedings will determine whether the case against Obado proceeds to the next stage or if he will be acquitted.
