Tension at Kamukunji Police Station as leaders demand Kaguchia's release
[Collins Oduor, Standard] Tension is high at Kamukunji Police Station as opposition leaders led by Kipipiri MP Wanjiku Muhia and lawyers demand the immediate release of Mukurweini MP John Kaguchia, claiming police had failed to comply with a High Court order granting him police cash bail.
Democracy for the Citizens Party (DCP) leader Rigathi Gachagua in a post on his Facebook account said that the High Court had issued orders directing the Officer Commanding Station (OCS) at Kamukunji Police Station to release the legislator immediately upon payment of the bail.
The legislators accused police of delaying compliance with the court order and questioned why the MP was still being held despite the court's directive.
