Zainab Sheriff Sent Back to Prison Appeal Case Adjourned to a New Date

Zainab Sheriff has challenged her conviction for incitement and threatening remarks at the High Court, where her appeal hearing continued today before Hon. Justice Mark Ngegba.

Through her Defence Counsel, Roland Wright, Sheriff argued that the proceedings at the Magistrate’s Court were fundamentally flawed and should be declared a nullity. The defence maintained that the interview at the centre of the case was conducted privately during a political rally and was not published by Sheriff herself.
