Meru Senator Mithika Linturi has been exposed for trying to rape someone’s wife in a lodging after the man left shortly to attend to some errands.
According to the Star, senator Mithika Linturi has moved to court seeking to stop police from arresting or charging him as he is on spot for entering into a couple’s hotel room when the husband was out and allegedly attempting to rape the wife.
According to police documents as captured by K24, the woman reported that the incident happened on January 29 2021 when she was with her husband and friends at Maiyan Villa Resort in Nanyuki.
She says that later that night, she retired back to their room but she did not lock the door because her husband was still out.
At about 3 am, she heard the door unlocked and since the lights were switched off she assumed it was her husband and the person entered her bed and started touching her in a ‘very unusual manner’.
However, according to the woman, the man she thought was her husband, never uttered a single word while he inappropriately touched her and later, they both fell asleep.
“30 minutes later while in the romantic mood I heard a knock on the door and went to open the door only to find my husband standing at the door,” read the report.
In the meantime, Senator Mithika Linturi in March 2021 moved to court with the aim of blocking the DPP from arresting him over fraudulent loan he took from Family Bank two years ago.
Linturi had been sucked into this fraud mess together with his co-director Emily Nkirote Buantai,
They claimed that their intended prosecution was unlawful as it was related to the family and property dispute between Linturi and his estranged wife Maryanne Kitany.
Kitany lodged a complaint with the DCI two years ago accusing Linturi and Nkirote who were also directors of Atticon Ltd of fraud in taking a loan using fake papers.
Linturi had asked the court to grant them anticipatory bail pending their arrest and prosecution.
He also wanted the court to bar the DPP and DCI from prosecuting them with any criminal offences relating to credit facilities and securities and fraudulent changes on Atticon Limited Ownership pending hearing and determination of family disputes between him and Kitany.
There are currently about eight different cases that are still pending before court relating to property disputes including the divorce case.
“The DPP has maliciously recommended the arrest, charge and prosecution for alleged criminal offences revolving around loans, overdrafts other facilities that Family Bank extended to Atticon Ltd where the complaint giving rise to the investigations had actually been lodged,” read court papers.
He argued that the charges he was being prosecuted on were the same issue in an ongoing civil, commercial and family disputes that are pending before various courts between him and Kitany.
“The intended arrest, charge and prosecution for offences relating to the said loan as well as the dispute over ownership of Atticon are improper and abuse of power,” Linturi claimed.
Linturi added that the decision to prosecute them had an ulterior motive and was to unfairly coerce them to settle the on-going litigation in favour of Kitany and her business partners.
