Making the application for his client, lawyer Gordon Ogolla said he was unable to proceed with the matter since he was unwell.

He told the court that he had undergone an operation adding that he cannot speak for long.

Chief Magistrate Josephat Kalo in his ruling allowed the application for adjournment and moved the matter to September 13 for hearing.

The case has never kicked off since the arrest of the two in December 2017.
