The women, who own business stalls at Sheikh Karume Road in Nairobi’s central business district, were charged with affray (the offence for disturbing public peace by fighting in a public place).
Makadara Law Court heard that Wamaitha’s husband allegedly told her that Murithi had made sexual advances at him and he wasn’t comfortable being seduced by her.
A spy Wamaitha hired allegedly corroborated the claim, leading to the fight at Murithi’s phone shop where she reportedly destroyed a phone.
