Kevin Migwe Kimwatu, the husband of the late Rosemary Chemutai Kimwatu, has withdrawn the legal case he had filed to block his wife's burial without his consent. The husband, represented by lawyer Ramadhan Abubakar, informed Milimani Principal Magistrate Agnes Mwangi on Monday, August 31, 2026, that he was withdrawing the entire suit.
The lawyer stated that his client has instructed him to withdraw the case, as Kevin Kimwatu now considers Paul Koech and Beatrice Koech as his children's grandparents. Abubakar added that his client does not wish to pursue the matter further and that the first and second respondents are the rightful grandparents to their children.
Kimwatu has further requested the court's permission to visit his late wife's gravesite. The Chemutai family's lawyer, who did not object to the withdrawal of the suit, clarified that Paul and Beatrice Koech have no objections to Kimwatu and his children visiting the gravesite at any time.
