[quote=Bigchick][quote=hardwood][quote=kawi254][quote=hardwood]How do people, sister/ brother take over property before the suspected wife of the deceased is convicted by a court of law? This calls for very many questions...

[quote]Tob Cohen's sister to take over Sh400 million villa. Tycoon’s family seeks to transfer Wairimu's personal items to Langata women’s prison where the 52-year-old is detained.[/quote][/quote]

can the 400 Million Villa simply be legally signed away to Tob Cohen's sister as per His will as it was Matrimonial property? Methinks Wairimu's daughter who was legally adopted by Tob Cohen stands to gain on the 400 Million Villa (it is on half an acre...is it really worth 400 Million? I mean you can value it at 400 million but will they get a buyer for 400 million?)

Very true. A child should not be disinherited because of the alleged sins of her mother. The couple were married for 29yrs and the daughter knows no other home.

Some reports indicate they got married in 2007.That is 12 years ago.Where does this story of 29years come from?

Why are there no kids?Sorry it's not a good question but then again it would be good to know why Wairish chose not to have pointy kids as we used to call them.

From the stories flying around,its not as straight foward as I thought........bit Wairish remains key suspect.That Muiruri man also needs some probing....[/quote]

They have been living together since the lady was 22yrs and the guy 42yrs. That's close to 30yrs. The wedding came later. Regarding biological kids, i'd say we cannot comment about their circumstances since such matters are private but what we do know is that they have one adopted daughter. A child is a child since by law an adopted one has equal rights to a biological one.

And yes you are right about that Muiruri fellow, he is talking too much and wailing more than the bereaved. He appears to know alot of finer details about the murder - the why, how and when - and thus he should also be considered as a person of interest.

[quote=Kusadikika]Is that Muiruri the same one whose son was murdered a few years ago?[/quote]

Yep! Seems to be a witness in murder scenes

Who can paste that law of inheritance here? It is not a right, if a will exists, it prevails.

And he is an ex-cop!

Your estate should pass on to your dependents i.e wife and kids, and they can contest the will if you leave the estate to 'strangers'. Also matrimonial property is owned on a 50/50 basis and therefore one spouse can not claim to pass all matrimonial property to 3rd parties.[/quote]


Does the law apply whey one partner"murders" the other one like what Wairimu has done?
