By MAUREEN KAKAHMore by this AuthorA High Court judge has ordered Interior Principal Secretary Karanja Kibicho to be jailed for three months after he failed to honour a court summons. Justice George Odunga ordered the Inspector-General of Police to ensure Mr Kibicho is arrested and sent to prison to serve the sentence. The judge pointed out that court orders should be respected and that any disobedience should not be tolerated. Justice Odunga said Mr Kibicho failed twice to honour a summons to appear in court to explain why a torture victim, who was awarded compensation after suing 13 years ago, had not been paid. On the first day, his lawyer told the court that he was attending a meeting and could therefore not make it.
