BY NT REPORTER.
Three nurses and a KNH cleaner have been charged with the murder of cancer patient
Geoffrey Mureithi, Priscilla Wairimu, Rosemary Nkonge and Mary Muthoni were accused of killing Cosmas Mutunga on November 29, 2015.
The man who was admitted on November 8 was found with several stab wounds and his eye gouged out. His right leg was also broken between the knee and the ankle.
The DPP asked the court for five days to place key witnesses under the victim’s protection program before the accused apply for bail.
This followed investigations into the death of 42-year old cancer patient Cosmas Mutunga on November 29, 2015.
The management of Kenyatta National Hospital was pushed in September to give a public report on internal investigations concerning Mutunga’s death.
The accused will be detained at the Lang’ata and Industrial Area prisons.
Hearing for bail application is fixed for March 6 and 9, 2017.
