A senior ex-Scotland Yard officer yesterday lost custody of his three-year-old son after the High Court ordered that the minor stays with his mother.
But the court also ordered the father to have unfettered access to the child, who has been at the centre of court battles between the Briton and his estranged Kenyan girlfriend.
Yesterday, Justice John Onyiego overturned a ruling by a children’s court and ordered that the boy be returned to his mother until her appeal is heard and determined.
The judge also ordered a report from the children s officer, Mvita Sub-County, indicating the suitability of the mother having custody of the child.
