Two people accused of killing a middle-aged man months ago on suspicion of being a robber have been charged with murder at Eldoret High Court.

Robert Kiplagat, a peasant farmer and Alex Kiptoo, a Kenya Medical Training College ( KMTC ) Nairobi campus student appeared before Judge Robert Wananda and denied one count of murder.

The packed court heard that they committed the offence on April 6, 2024, at HZ area in Keiyo South, Elgeyo Marakwet County.

The duo are said to have killed Martin Makori in cold blood on the fateful night.

The prosecution informed the court that a mental assessment conducted against the accused persons found that they were fit to face trial.

Kiptoo’s lawyer Joseph Kiplagat requested for his client to be released on reasonable bail saying that he was a medical student and eager to continue with his studies.

On his part, the first accused pleaded with the Judge to free him on reasonable bail terms saying that he has two children who had cleared their form four studies and were due to join universities in September.

The accused have been remanded at Eldoret GK prison since their arrest in April.

Justice Wananda directed the prosecution to supply the accused persons through their defense lawyers with copies of witness statements.

He further ordered the prosecution to avail pre-bail report in two weeks, when the application by the accused persons to be freed on bond will be heard.

Justice Wananda set mention of the case on July 29, 2024.
