The planned postmortem on the body of Tob Cohen has been postponed.
The autopsy was pushed to Wednesday after government pathologist Peter Ndegwa pulled out.
On Tuesday, Ndegwa pulled out saying he was at the scene of crime at Tob Cohen’s house in Kitisuru but said his colleague, Chief Government Pathologist Johansen Oduor, will now oversee the autopsy.
Meanwhile, the defense lawyer, Philip Murgor, is set to file an application seeking to have Cohen’s wife, Sarah Wairimu, to be allowed to identify her slain husband’s body.
Wairimu was charged last week with the murder of Cohen whose body was found in a septic tank in their Nairobi home, nearly two months after he was reported missing in July.
On Monday, she was ordered remanded until September 26, when she will take plea in the murder case.
