The Kenyan government is seeking to postpone a hearing on a maritime dispute with Somalia.
According to Kenya officials who spoke to the local media, that Kenya has requested fourth time postponement of the case.
The hearing was set to take place next month at the International Court of Justice (ICJ).
In seeking for extension, Kenya claims that a crucial map needed to be presented before the court has mysteriously vanished.
Both Somalia and Kenya are contesting ownership of a triangular territory measuring 100,000km2 in the Indian Ocean boundary.
Somalia went to court in 2014 following what it termed as failure to settle the matter with her neighbour, Kenya bilaterally.
The court verdict is final and not subject to appeal.
