The hearing on the Arror and Kimwarer dam scandal was postponed after a witness told the court that he was not in his right sense of mind.
On Monday, Gideon Rotich told the Milimani Anti-Corruption court that he slept late because he was dealing with private issues.
He went on to say that he had gotten up early to cope with the same issues he was not properly set to testify in Court.
“I ask the court to give me time to settle,” he said.
The defence did not object to Rotich’s request. As such, the matter will proceed on Tuesday, August 1.
“I’m willing to indulge this witness to allow him today to rest, we shall be proceeding tomorrow, “ said Trial Magistrate Eunice Nyutu
In the case, Former Treasury Cabinet Secretary Henry Rotich has been charged with conspiracy to defraud the government more than Ksh.63 billion meant for the construction of the Arror and Kimwarer dams.
