Wairimu now says she is being framed for murder as part of a conspiracy to block her from inheriting Cohen’s estate.
“My husband was murdered by people who wanted to grab our Sh500 million matrimonial home in Kitisuru. They had me arrested on August 28, 2020, then colluded with investigators to implicate me after planting his body in a septic tank while I was in custody,” she swore.

The widow has pointed an accusing finger at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) accusing them of being used by politicians and other actors to frame her for murder.
She questioned why the DCI staged a media blitz, publishing details of the case.
Wairimu has asked the court to drop the murder charges she is facing because the case is founded on hearsay and built on a malicious investigative process.
