The suspect, Michael Kahoro, stabbed the magistrate with a screw driver after he was handed a three-year jail sentence for assault.

Those injured in the incident included Resident Magistrate Eunice Kelly, a complainant and police officer attached to the court.

Chief Justice David Maraga has condemned the attack saying the Judiciary will not be intimidated by cowardly acts.

“I wish to strongly condemn the attack on the Resident Magistrate at Nakuru Law Courts, Hon. Eunice Kelly, the complainant in the case she was trying, and a police officer attached to the court. I wish them a quick recovery,” CJ Maraga said.
