A matatu tout appeared in court to face murder charges after allegedly slashing his fellow tout with a panga in Embakasi, Nairobi.

The tout was reported to have slashed the deceased with a panga at Cabanas stage in Embakasi South after the two were involved in arguments over passengers.

The incident occurred in 2019 near Rapid Kate Logistics, where the accused reportedly drew a machete from underneath his clothing following a heated argument.

The case has been ongoing in court since then, with delays in delivering the judgment attributed to judicial transfers of the judge assigned to the case.
