A lady who send her friend a WhatsApp message threatening to kill her was on Monday charged before a Nairobi court.
Hellen Nyambura Njoki is alleged to have send abusive messages to Miriam Yunus and Aldo threatened to kill
her.
Njoki however caused a stir in court when she refused to talk only nodding making the court question whether she was dumb.
Magistrate Gilbert Shikwe had to confirm with the prosecution whether the suspects might be verbally impaired.
The Prosecutor told court that he thought the woman had opted to exercise her constitutional right to remain silence.
The court heard that Nikki used her WhatsApp account to threaten Miriam Athmani Yunus telling her that she had notified the DCI that she was going to take law at hand and kill her.
She was also charged with a second count of Cyber harassment where the prosecution alleged that on April 13, 2024 the suspect used very abusive words using her WhatsApp account directing the said words to Miriam Athman.
She was charged with a total of six counts related to the offence and the court entered a plea of not guilty to all counts:
She was released on a Sh 150,000 cash bail and the matter will be mentioned in two weeks for pre-trial.
