The High Court has ordered the release of Mukurwe-ini MP John Kaguchia from police custody upon the payment of a cash bail of Sh100,000.
In orders issued by Kiambu High Court Lady Justice Njoki Mwangi, the court directed that the legislator be released after depositing the cash bail pending the hearing of his application.
Kaguchia is currently being held at Kamukunji Police Station in Nairobi following his arrest on Monday.
Meanwhile, demonstrations were reported in parts of Mukurwe-ini Constituency, with supporters demanding the MP’s immediate release ahead of his expected court appearance.
“My advice to the OCS is to obey the court order, as he will be held personally liable for contempt of court.
