[File, Standard]A woman who had been accused of forging former freedom fighter Fred Kubai’s will has been let off the hook. At the same time, High Court judge Chacha Mwita ordered the State to pay Christina Gakuhi Sh1 million for wrongful arrest and prosecution. Justice Mwita ruled that the Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko breached the law when he allowed the woman to be charged in a succession case. He found that Kubai’s children could not re-awaken the succession case by having Gakuhi, whom they claimed was their father’s househelp, charged for falsifying a hand-written will.
