By JOSEPH WANGUI More by this AuthorA Nairobi court has ordered the Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti to personally arrest a police detective handling the Sh39 billion fake military tender involving former Cabinet secretary Rashid Echesa. Senior Principal Magistrate Kenneth Cheruiyot on Wednesday amended his earlier order that had directed the Nairobi County commander to arrest Police Constable John Munjama, who is the case investigating officer. PC Munjama told court that the police suspect that the motor vehicle was unlawfully acquired, hence justification for its continued detention. There is no legal justification for the continued detention of the said motor vehicle. The magistrate directed Mr Kinoti to produce the officer in court for sentencing because of contempt.
