Mungiki suspects charged in court
More articles on this topic: MungikiTwenty-nine suspected Mungiki sect members arrested in an alleged hideout in Kitengela early this month were Monday arraigned in a Nairobi court.
The accused who included a 70-year-old man denied being present at Ngurunga area near Kitengela and consenting to the administering of an oath, which was to bind them to the outlawed sect.
The accused faced another charge of illegal possession of over 3000 litres of Muratina, a traditional liquor.
They denied committing the offences on the 5th of this month at Ngurunga area, Kitengela. The prosecution urged the court to remand the suspects in custody for one week saying investigations were still going on.
The request was however rejected by Nairobi chief magistrate Aggrey Muchelule who said police had already kept the accused in custody for ten days.
The suspects were released on a cash bail of 30-thousand shillings. The trial starts on December 9th. Meanwhile, further hearing of a case filed by a 42-year-old HIV positive woman against her former employer Home Park Caterers, will be on November 1st.
The case was adjourned today after the catering company hired a second lawyer as its lead counsel. The woman says she was sacked by Home Park after a city doctor revealed her HIV status without her consent.
The case has drawn interest from Aids activists. At the same time, medical researcher, Professor Arthur Obel today denied ever shooting a matatu driver in Nairobi last year.
Obel said he only drew his gun to scare people after sensing danger from a crowd along Tom Mboya Street where a matatu had blocked his vehicle. The researcher is defending himself after the trial magistrate Wilson Muiruri put him on his defense.
