Former President Uhuru Kenyatta's son Jomo has withdrawn a case he filed against the government over plans to take away his firearms. In a consent adopted by High Court judge, Jairus Ngaah, on Wednesday, Jomo withdrew the case he filed last year after the State agreed not to interfere with his firearms licence. Jomo approached the court in July last year after police officers raided his Windy Ridge home in Karen and demanded that he surrender his firearms. He sued the Chief Licensing Officer, the Firearms Licensing Board and the Attorney General. The board also faulted Jomo for failing to exhaust the remedies available under the Firearms Act before going to court.
