Justice Sankale Wants Police Blocked from arresting him over Tob Cohen’s Murder

In an application through his lawyer, the judge has accused the police bosses of going rogue and acting in contravention with the decision of the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP).
This comes following an explosive testimony of a senior DCI officer which paints a suspicious association between justice Sankale and Sarah Wairimu Cohen, the wife to the deceased businessman.
In an application through lawyer Walter Wanyama, the judge questions the motive of the testimony of the DCI saying:
“What is more intriguing and probably a manifestation of an institution whose leaders have gone rogue, the 2nd respondent wants to arrest the petitioner on matters that the DPP has already considered and closed.”
Ole Sankale goes ahead to state that the evidence presented by the DCI officer John Gachomo was based on matters the DPP had already issued a decision on.
“The petitioner has the legitimate expectation that he won’t be arrested and harassed again by the 2nd respondent,” submits the judge.
The judge is now seeking prayers that pending the hearing and determination of the application, that a temporary injunction is issued barring his arrest or prosecution on matters from the murder probe of Tob Cohen.
