Rally driver Maxine Wahome has asked the court to clear her of all charges in the murder case involving her boyfriend and colleague, Assad Khan, following the prosecution’s closure of evidence.
Her lawyer, Philip Murgor, told Judge Lillian Mutende that Wahome would argue she has no case to answer. Prosecutor Sarah Ogweno concluded the state’s case after 29 witnesses, including investigating officer Diana Angote, testified.
