A Nairobi court has issued an extradition order for Kevin Kang'ethe to face trial in the United States over the alleged murder of Margaret Mbitu.
Milimani Chief Magistrate Lucas Onyina has ruled that the extradition request meets the necessary legal criteria, establishing a sufficient link between Kang'ethe and the alleged first-degree murder offence. The court emphasizes that its role in extradition proceedings is not to determine guilt, but rather to assess whether there are grounds to justify the surrender of the accused to face trial in the requesting country. Magistrate Onyina states that the evidence presented established reasonable cause for Kang'ethe's extradition to the United States to stand trial for violating Massachusetts General Law, Chapter 265, section 1.
Prior to this ruling, the Director of Public Prosecutions had urged the court to approve Kang'ethe's extradition. Prosecution Counsel Vincent Monda argued that the court's mandate was to ascertain a link between the accused and the criminal incident, not to delve into the merits of the charge. Monda highlighted that Kang'ethe was found in possession of items belonging to the deceased, including her driving license and bank cards, which suggested a connection between them. The Kenyan government, through its Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, has been actively involved in ensuring due process and protecting Kang'ethe's rights throughout the extradition proceedings.
The extradition process itself is a multifaceted legal procedure requiring coordination between various government agencies. In this instance, the Kenyan Directorate of Criminal Investigations and the Inspector General of Police played crucial roles in locating and apprehending Kang'ethe. The US Embassy in Nairobi also issued a diplomatic note requesting his arrest and extradition. The Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs has reaffirmed its commitment to protecting the rights and interests of Kenyans living overseas and ensuring justice in cases involving Kenyan nationals.

Law seems to be double faced.
The British soldiers who killed our sister in nanyuki are still free.
I guess the law/justice is literary BLIND.
The Kenyan who killed our sister is heading back to the US to face justice. Don't confuse the two, main difference is jurisdiction. It's up to Kenya to go after the Brits, if Kenya is interested in prosecuting murders committed on her jurisdiction. US won't do it for Kenya.

Why not let the public stone him?
I am in support of that.
Yaah yaah yaaa ha. That's right. I knew this was coming, soon. Unlike the corrupt Kenyan system you tried to bribe to all and defeat justice for that innocent child of a parent like me, the American justice system is incorruptible, ensuring that all and sundry, including this he mjuaji know-know, gets justice not the usual Raila nusu mkate way, but in full. Now, Mr. Kang'ethe, these are the possible counts that awaits you in Massachussetts corridors of justice:
1. First degree murder, ie premeditated murder and intentional murder.
2. Being in possession of properties belonging to a victim of murder.
3. Knowingly running away from a scene of crime.
4. Planning, committing and executing murder.
5. Intentionally committing and act of murder and taking off into a foreign country to evade justice, without reporting your evil actions to local authorities.
6. Evil intent to harm and kill.
7. Disregard for human life.
Possible verdicts:
i). Life in prison without any possibility of parole.
ii). Death by......
iii). Four to five life sentences.
Instances:
- Become somebody's wife on day one at a federal maximum penitentiary.
- Will be provided with a free public defender at no cost to you, if you can't afford one.
Attention to all.
Lets all avoid committing heinous acts and may the only crime you can be involved in is a moving violation, late payment of mountainous bills, or calling out from work.
You can live in America as long as you like if you play by the rule.
May Maggie's soul rest in peace and may her family continue to be strong as their daughter gets justice from this monster.
