REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT NAIROBI (NAIROBI LAW COURTS) Civil Case 2964 of 1982 MUMBI KYALO 2. KAVILA KYALO ……………………………………..PLAINTIFFS VERSUS 1. THE HON. ATTORNEY GENERAL 2. CORPORAL LATILI MAINGI DAVID ..……….…DEFENDANTS 1. MARTIN KYALO 2. AGNES KYALO …………………………INTERESTED PARTIES RULING On 18th January, 1991 the court herein approved a settlement and made a further order for the investment of the respective shares of the settlement funds of some four beneficiaries who were then minors. These four minors were:WAMBUA KYALO - MUTHAMI KYALO then aged 16 years - then aged 15 years MALITE KYALO - then aged 13 years AGNES KYALO - then aged 12 years The four minors have since attained majority. On 6th July, 1999 the court ordered, following application by chamber summons dated 14th June 1999, that the respective shares of the settlement of WAMBUA KYALO and MUTHAMI KYALO be released to them. MALITE KYALO and AGNES KYALO have now similarly applied. Malite Kyalo is now called MARTIN KYALO. He appears to have assumed the new name at the time he obtained his natural identity card. He has sworn a supplementary affidavit explaining all this. I am satisfied that the MARTIN KYALO now before the court is the MALITE KYALO who was one of the four minors the beneficiaries of the settlement herein. I will in the circumstances grant prayer (b) of the application. MARTIN KYALO and AGNES KYALO are hereby permitted to withdraw the balance of the monies in the accounts opened for their benefit with Trade Bank Limited (in liquidation) and now being held at the Central Bank of Kenya. I decline to grant prayer (a). It is not necessary for the two to be joined as parties in this suit which was settled a long time age. There will be no order as to costs of the application.
