When Martha Muthoni was arraigned before the Thika law courts on Tuesday, she begged Kiambu County Chief Magistrate Stella Atambo for forgiveness saying she was tempted to sell in courts as potential clients could be found there.

Muthoni was arrested with 20 rolls of bhang valued at Sh2000.
Police said she was selling to criminal suspects at Thika law court cells as they awaited to be arraigned in court.
She was then charged with the offence of trafficking narcotic drugs contrary to section 4(a) of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Control Act No. 4 of 2022.
