Jacque Maribe was released on bail on Tuesday October 30th. Her fiancé Joseph Irungu was however denied bail and will remaind in prison until the case is determined.
While granting Maribe bail, Justice James Wakiaga said there was no likelihood of her skipping bail because she is a well-known television personality with many connections and strong family ties.
“She is a single mother of a young child who needs her presence. The law gives the mother a lot of responsibility of bringing up a child and it is only fair if she stays with the child during the period of her trial to teach him how to become a better citizen,” Justice Wakianga ruled.
