Letter To The ODPP Confirms Philip Murgor Had Tendered His Resignation
The scheduled plea taking Sarah Cohen, who is accused of the murder of her husband, Tob Cohen, wrapped to take off and postponed to next week, after the victim’s family questioned her representation by Philip Murgor.
The plea was pushed to October 1 after the prosecution and lawyer Cliff Ombeta for the Cohen family contested Ms Wairimu’s representation by Philip Murgor.
Mr Ombeta said Mr Murgor has never resigned as a special prosecutor following his appointment by the Director of Public Prosecutions Noordin Haji.
In a rebuttal, Mr Murgor insisted he had resigned from the special assignment Mr Hajji has assigned citing lack of said assignments.
According to the letter which was stamped as recieved by the ODPP on 07/03/2019, Murgor said Mr Haji’s office did not assign him any case, despite honouring clauses of his engagement, which prevented him from acting against the DPP in any matter.
Murgor has cleared the air on his Twitter

If this convinced the courts then the battle royale is set between Ombeta and Murgor as they defend their clients.
