High Court has ordered a six-year-old child at the centre of a legal custody dispute between a woman and her workmate to be subjected to a DNA paternity test.

The mother, listed as AN to protect the identity of the minor, failed to stop the paternity test in an appeal she filed at the High Court in Machakos.
