A Mombasa court has convicted banker Hannington Muthoka of attempted murder after finding him responsible for stabbing his former lover, Elizabeth Shigari Bana, three times during an incident in Port Reitz, Changamwe, in September 2023.
Senior Resident Magistrate David O. Odhiambo found Muthoka guilty of attempting to unlawfully cause Bana’s death after a trial in which the prosecution called 10 witnesses.
The court heard that Bana suffered serious injuries when a knife was driven into her back three times, with the blade remaining lodged in her body until it was removed during emergency surgery.
