Citizen TV journalist Jacque Maribe and her fiance Joseph Irungu populary known as Jowie’s murder case has resume.
Last Year September, business woman Monica Kimani’s murder caught the public’s attention,after Jacque Maribe and her fiancé Jowie found themselves roped in as the main suspects.
However Dennis Itumbi thinks the DCI shouldn’t have charged Maribe with murder since no single witness places her at the murder scene or even mention her adversely.
Monica Kimani was found dead in a bathtub with her neck slit ear to ear at her Lamuria Gardens Apartment in Kilimani, Off Dennis Pritt Road on September 20.
The body was found by her brother George Kimani when he visited Monica’s apartment to ascertain her safety after having failed to reach her on mobile phone the whole night.
Joseph Kuria Irungu, who asked for Citizen TV host Jacque Maribe’s hand in marriage on June 30, was the first one to be arrested after witnesses at a police parade positively identified him as the last man seen walking out of Ms Kimani’s apartment on September 19.
Irungu’s name came up during investigations after one of those who had recorded statements told police they knew him as Joe and Ms Maribe’s boyfriend.Irungu had worked in Dubai as a security officer for a private firm. He schooled with Monica at the Kenya Polytechnic, now Technical University of Kenya in Nairobi.
Another suspect Brian Kassaine was also arrested in connection with a gun Irungu allegedly used to shoot himself. Brian Kassaine is a neighbour to Maribe.
The couple was said to have got into an argument at Maribe’s Royal Park Apartment house number 626 on September 21, where Irungu is suspected to have grabbed a pistol and
