The Kenyan government is attempting to prevent a former Scotland Yard detective from testifying in a high-profile drug case involving Sh8.2 billion worth of methamphetamine.

• The case involves six Iranian nationals accused of drug trafficking.
• The state argues that the detective, Kevin Hurley, an expert witness, should not testify because he was not directly involved in the drug seizure or the initial investigation.
• Hurley's testimony is expected to challenge the prosecution's procedures regarding the handling of seized narcotics.
