Ruto’s Weston Hotel case withdrawn

A man who had sued Deputy President William Ruto to compel him to divulge information of how he acquired the land, on which Weston Hotel stands, has withdrawn the case.
Mr Martin Murithi Njeru, a 31-year old Embu land broker said he was convinced by a former Embu MP to withdraw the matter.
He wrote to the deputy registrar, Environment and Land Court Milimani on July 22, seeking the court to withdraw the petition numbered 613 of 2015.
“This is to notify you of my intention to withdraw the matter herein. I request the same be marked as withdrawn henceforth,” read the letter.
He, however, did not divulge the reason for the sudden move.
The case was slated for October 6 while the DP had been urged to respond.
