Sarah Wairimu Cohen is demanding Ksh500 million from the DCI George Kinoti and the Director of Public Prosecutions.

Wairimu, the main suspect in the murder of her husband Tob Cohen, says the amount paid for damage and loss occasioned by illegal seizure of her property.

In the application, Ms Wairimu is accusing the DCI of ‘illegal seizure and detention of her property.’

If the application is accepted, the DCI will be required to give a full inventory of the property and measures taken to preserve its condition from the date of seizure to the day of return.
