Friday saw the arraignment of Vivian Oka Mukoko and Rose Opondo in a Limuru court, where the police requested to hold them for seven days while they were being investigated.
After Limuru Senior Principal Magistrate Jared Magoli stated that the court needed some time to give instructions on the subject, the two suspects were forced to spend the weekend at Tigoni police station.
"The court requires ample time to review the arguments made by both parties regarding whether further time should be given to the police to further examine them. On Monday in the afternoon, the court will issue its decision, Magoli decided.
The two were detained at Brown Cheese Company after it was claimed that they had ordered female employees to undress in order to determine who was menstruating. This came about as a result of a used sanitary pad being discovered in a dustbin rather than a sanitary disposal bin.
The police working the case said that the two ended up making a lot of women undress in front of them so they could determine who might be the culprit.
Felix Mutua, the director of criminal investigations for the Limuru subcounty, reported the incident on July 5 to the Tigoni police station. 34 witnesses had recorded their statements, Mutua informed Magoli.
He said he needed additional advice from his superiors and the director of public prosecutions.
In light of the controversy surrounding the case and the threat to the two's safety, he urged the court to order their detention at Tigoni police station in the event that his 10-day request was granted.
Two defense attorneys disagreed with the police prayers, claiming that their clients had family who relied on them and places where they could live.
They informed the magistrate that the two could not flee because they approached the police rather than waiting to be apprehended.
Magoli stated that after carefully weighing the prosecution's request and the defense's opposition, the court would issue its instructions on Monday at 2:00 p.m.
The women's human rights advocacy group Groots Kenya, which is chaired by MCA Pacifica Ongecha, a Kiambu nominee, has promised to continue till the victims' rights are upheld.
This is a human rights violation committed against female employees by female bosses. This is wicked; it is an act of intimidation, disdain, and hatred. Justice must be served, Ongecha remarked.
Ongecha and other female protestors defaced the company's gate with various types of pads on Thursday.
Crazy BUT true reading;
The saying "the dead don't tell tales" has come to haunt police and a Kakamega town when the body of a lady who had been missing for more than a week was found after its location was revealed in a dream.
Police are unsure of whether to treat the person to whom the revelation was made as a whistle-blower or a suspect as the villagers speculate that the dream may be a testament to the deceased's desire for a proper funeral and her determination to see her killers brought to justice.
