The case was dropped after the Court of Appeal ordered that the trial was unconstitutional.

Ngilu was charged with obstructing the commission officials from investigating the 134-acre Karen land scam.

Her lawyer,  Paul Muite issued a Court of Appeal order issued which appellate judges Alnashir Visram, Wanjiru Karanja and Jamila Mohamed declared Mrs Ngilu's trial as unconstitutional and directed the anti-corruption court to terminate the charge.

Senior Principal Magistrate Lawrence Mugambi was told that it is only the case of his client that was terminated, but the seven other suspects will go to full trial.
