City millionaire detained by wife for 2 years goes to court seeking property

An accountant who was rescued from a house where he had been detained by his wife for two years now wants the High Court to cancel a title deed issued in favour of two businessmen.

Mr Francis Kiongo Muturi wants the title deed issued to businessmen Mr Hitesh Morjaria and Mr Vijay Morjaria canceled because they allegedly breached the sale agreement.

Mr Muturi contracted a mysterious disease when he was detained by his wife Ms Bertha Njeri in their matrimonial house in Kikuyu, Kiambu County, between 2013 and December 2015. He was eventually rescued by police, a local reverend and a lobby group for men’s rights.

Mr Muturi, 50, owned the Sh45 million land in Embakasi jointly with Mr Kennedy Ng’ang’a Maranga. They entered into a sale agreement with the two businessmen on the land in October 5, 2012.

He alleges in court papers that the two businessmen transferred the land, measuring one and half acres, into their names before they paid for it in full.

He argues that according to the sale agreement, the property was to be transferred to the businessmen after the full payment of Sh45 million.
