Gatundu south MP Moses Kuria,
Kabete MP Ferdinand Waititu, Machakos
Senator Johnstone Muthama and Suna East
MP Junet Mohamed spent the night in police
cells.
The four are facing charges of spreading hate
speech in separate gatherings on Sunday and
Monday.
Kuria was caught on camera Sunday telling a
gathering in Kasarani stadium that the
opposition leader Raila Odinga should be
assassinated.
Mohamed spewed hate while responding to
Kuria’s remarks at an ODM press briefing on
Monday.
Others who are facing similar charges are
Bahati MP Kimani Ngunjiri, Kitutu Masaba MP
Timothy Bosire, Busia woman representative
Florence Mutua and Kilifi woman
representative Aisha Jumwa.
The eight were arraigned in court Tuesday but
did not take pleas because the charge sheets
were not ready
