- New details have surfaced regarding the final hours of Paul Gicheru, the lawyer facing charges at the International Criminal Court (ICC), who was confirmed dead at his home on Monday night.

It has been reported that the late, who died at the age of 52, spent his final moments at his home in Karen drinking wine before his wife discovered him passed out with his son.
His wife Ruth, his son Allan, 22, his father-in-law Wangombe Wokabi, and one of his maids named Dorcas were at home on the day of his death, according to his staff who spoke privately with Taifa Leo today.
According to the workers, their boss spent the entire day on Monday in his private room on the top floor of his three-bedroom home, consuming his favorite wine.
He only went downstairs around 4 p.m. to get some water and then returned upstairs.
“His wife and father-in-law were there but he spent the whole day in his room and he came down only once,” one of his employees told Taifa Today yesterday.
Mr Gicheru was waiting for the International Criminal Court to rule on whether he bribed witnesses in the case against President William Ruto, which was rejected six years ago.
When he was brought to the Karen hospital for treatment on Monday night, he was pronounced dead shortly after one o’clock.
The deceased was not ill, according to reports, and he had not left his property number nine in the elite Northwood Villas, Miotoni Lane, Karen, where the lowest monthly rent is Sh400,000, since he moved there five years ago.
Nothing seemed out of the ordinary until his wife went upstairs shortly after one a.m. to see if Gicheru would join them for chajio and found him foaming at the mouth.
Mrs Gicheru rushed to a neighbouring room and discovered her son unconscious. Mr Gicheru and Alan, a student at a British university, were sent to the hospital in an ambulance.
Mrs. Gicheru and one of their maids, Dorcas, boarded the ambulance, which was transporting the lawyer and her son to the hospital. Dorcas arrived with the heartbreaking news that the lawyer had died at four o’clock Monday night.
