It was an emotional morning in court Jacque Maribe and her fiance Jowie.

A photo of their reunion says a lot on how this case has taken a toil on them.

The two are suspects in the murder of Monicah Kimani who was found in her apartment with her throat slit.

DPP Noordin Haji has ordered TV journalist Jacque Maribe and her fiance Joseph Irungu alias Jowie to be charged with the murder of businesswoman Monica Kimani.

"I have reviewed the evidence so far on record and I am satisfied that there exists a prima facie case to warrant criminal prosecution against them," Haji said in a statement on Tuesday.

Maribe has been implicated in the gory murder by her conduct and association with the prime suspect Jowie. Monica, 28, was killed at her Lamuria Gardens Apartment on September 19 in Kilimani, Off Dennis Pritt Road. a day after she arrived in the country from Juba.

Maribe's charges emanate from what police describe as the illegal handling of a firearm after a 9mm live bullet was recovered in her bedroom. The ammo was linked to a gun which belongs to her neighbour, Brian Kasaine, that Jowie allegedly used to shoot himself but later claimed he was shot at by unknown people.

DCI George Kinoti told the Star on October 6 that evidence gathered by the investigators so far reveals that Maribe was indirectly linked to Monica’s murder.
