State asks court to detain Kilifi deputy governor for 10 more daysThe State wants Kilifi Deputy Governor Gedion Saburi detained for 10 more days over claims he had infected his driver and others who are still in quarantine with Covid-19 after failing to isolate himself. Mr Saburi was charged on April 9 with exposing the public to an infectious disease by failing to enter quarantine after flying back from Germany in March. The State tabled the Kemri report in court yesterday. Yesterday, the prosecution produced a medical report from Kemri indicating that Saburi tested positive for Covid-19 on March 21, which led to him being quarantined at the Coast General Hospital for 14 days.
