By SAM KIPLAGATMore by this AuthorFormer National Land Commission Chairman Muhammad Swazuri will remain in police custody until next Thursday when a ruling will be made on whether his Sh12 million cash bail should be reviewed. Mr Swazuri's terms were Sh12 million cash bail or Sh30 million bond, but he applied for a review on Wednesday saying they were unjust, unreasonably high and in contravention of Article 49 of the Constitution. “This honourable court should review the bond terms of the applicant and exercise discretion by enhancing bond. If not, it should deny the accused bail or bond," said state counsel Vincent Monda. Businessman Samuel Rugongo was granted freedom on Sh6 million cash bail or Sh15 million bond while Sostemah Ogero Taracha was ordered to deposit a cash bail of Sh3 million.
