[Photo: File/standard]Senior counsel Ahmednasir Abdullahi will appear before a tribunal on Monday to answer to claims of soliciting a Sh100 million bribe. Businesswoman Rose Mbithe had claimed before the tribunal on Wednesday that Ahmednasir asked for a bribe to help her in a property suit. And yesterday, State lawyer Nazima Malik told the tribunal led by appellate judge David Maraga that Abdullahi had confirmed he would appear to answer to the allegations. Mbithe further told the tribunal that after the suit house in Karen, Nairobi was valued at Sh220 million, the lawyer asked for half the value of the property (Sh110million). The tribunal is investigating suspended judge Joseph Mutava's suitability to continue serving as a judge.
