A WOMAN claiming inheritance of over Sh50 million worth of property of Mayale MP Guracha Galgalo, left her husband immediately he issued Talak, according to the Islamic law on marriages and divorce, a court heard yesterday.
The court heard that Rehema did not wait for the customary three months to end before leaving her husband. She later filed a divorce petition in the High Court and attached a marriage certificate from the assistant registrar of marriages in Sheria House. But efforts by Rehema’s lawyer Mr Cecil Miller to produce the affidavit and a copy of a marriage certificate to the court as exhibits were heavily contested by Mr Alfred Nyandieka, acting for Galgalo’s first wife, Bernadefaia, saying they were false But Miller told the Court that it was disrespectful for Mr Nyandieka to claim that an advocate with the High Court of Kenya could produce forged documents in court.
Justice Daudi Onyancha set a ruling to determine whether the documents being used to prove Rehema’s case would be accepted or rejected by the court. The ruling and further hearing on the case continues on October 2
