Imagine presiding over a case where the verdict is subject to a threat that someone might die if the outcome is not in a party's favour.
This is the predicament faced by Environment and Land Court Justice Oguttu Mboya when he was determining a case between a self-proclaimed police officer, Abdi Guyo Jattani, and his father, Guyo Jattani, over the ownership of a plot in Moyale.
The judge said the court battle between the two was fascinating, mind-boggling and equally unfathomable.
He observed that Abdi, who allegedly claimed to be a police officer attached to the Kenya Prisons Service, had threatened to kill Guyo.
