Mithika Linturi’s estranged wife, Marianne Kitany, informed the court that cheating and sexual frustrations pushed her to opt to end her marriage to the politician.
Appearing before the Milimani Law Court, Kitany noted that she “sneaked” into his phone and found evidence of a woman who sent the Meru Senator pornographic material.
She further revealed that the Senator denied her conjugal rights, prompting her to file for a divorce against the legislator.
