A court in Eldoret court has allowed the former Kakamega District Commissioner (DC) Paul Yatich to proceed with burial plans for his slain wife Loice.
Loice was brutally murdered three weeks ago at her house in Kiplombe estate on the outskirts of Eldoret town.
The deceased burial was scheduled to take place two weeks ago but was stopped following a court injunction following a case filed by the ex-DC's sister-in-law, Esther Chirchir.
Eldoret Resident Magistrate Nicodemus Moseti marked the case as settled after both parties involved in the feud over burial plans informed the court that they had settled the issues that had stalled the burial ceremony.
Chirchir, through her lawyer Silas Kandie asked the court to withdraw the application as they had agreed with the former DC’s family on the burial plans.
The magistrate directed that the applicant meet the cost of preservation of the deceased body which is lying at the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital in Eldoret.
Burial plans are now expected to go on with the deceased who worked as a Curriculum Development officer at the Teachers Service Commission in Eldoret towns expected to be laid to rest at the former DC's village in Talai, Baringo county.
