Lawyer Philip Murgor urged the court to hear the plea as a matter of urgency so that his client is not “denied of her right to accord her husband a decent burial and pay her last respects.”

He further noted that the burial will be held at 2 pm on Monday in a private affair and only family members will be present.

In an earlier letter addressed to Chiromo Mortuary, Sarah’s lawyer had uploaded a copy of the couple’s marriage certificate to prove that they are were still married at the time of Cohen’s death.

On Friday, Murgor skipped the reading of Cohen’s will after Sarah alleged that its contents had been “severely compromised.”

Speaking to The Standard, Murgor stated: “My client and the deceased were embroiled in a divorce case pending in court. Among the contested properties is their house that is worth Ksh. 400million, which should be shared equally.”
