By COLLINS OMULOMore by this AuthorThe government has warned that people involved in political violence will be arrested and charged in the courts of law. Addressing journalists Tuesday at KICC in Nairobi, government spokesperson Eric Kiraithe said the violence witnessed in Bungoma during Deputy President William Ruto's tour is criminal. He said such violence violates the Constitution, specifically Article 38 that stipulates the rights to a free and fair election. “Every citizen has a right to join, campaign and vote for a political party of their choice without intimidation,” said Mr Kiraithe. He also condemned the incident in Kayole on Sunday in which a police officer was shot and injured during a rally.
