Benmark Ekhubi
Benmark Ekhubi is a Milimani Principal Magistrate in Kenya who recently presided over the extradition case of Abdul Zahir Qadir. He ruled in favor of the application by the Kenyan Director of Public Prosecutions, allowing Qadir to be extradited to the United States to face charges related to drug trafficking and firearms possession. Ekhubi's ruling confirmed the validity of the extradition treaty between Kenya and the U.S. and emphasized the legal grounds for the extradition despite the defense's claims of political motivations behind the charges.
