The court has directed DCI boss George Kinoti to personally arrest the Investigating Officer in Ex-CS Rashid Echesa criminal case. Senior Principal Magistrate Kenneth Cheruiyot on Wednesday amended his earlier orders that had directed the Nairobi County Commander to arrest PC John Munjama. On Monday the court issued a warrant against arrest Munjama after he refused to release Echesa’s Range Rover and two firearms as had been directed by court last month. However, he changed his Monday’s order and instead directed the DCI himself to arrest the officer and produce him in court as soon as possible for sentencing. “The Director of Criminal Investigations is directed to cause of arrest of police Constable John Munjama upon being apprehended should be escorted to this court as soon as practicable for purposes of being sentenced be contempt of court,” the order reads.
