For some time now there has been trouble in the house of Meru Senator Mithika Linturi and his wife Marianne Keitany, with the latter accusing her husband of threatening to kill her and throwing her out of their marital home.

Even after the Court put restraining orders on Linturi and ordered him to give Keitany access to their Runda home, it is alleged that Linturi recently sent goons to forcefully evict his wife out of their home.

It now seems like Keitany has had enough and has resulted to formally filing a divorce.
