I write as we mourn Principal Magistrate Monica Kivuti. Monica was shot while dispensing justice. My condolences to the family, and the legal fraternity. We must always remember that advocates, magistrates, and judges, along with other judicial officers, are our humble servants. They serve to ensure a sound justice system. Let’s therefore respect their decisions, and court premises.
Where aggrieved by matters touching on them, let’s use available appeal mechanisms. Forwards, Monica’s death should trigger the enhancement of security in courts for judicial officers and users.
