Activist Boniface Mwangi and four others have been released on Ksh 20,000 cash bail each. The court sitting in Milimani ruled against detaining the four for 21 days as requested by investigating officers. The court instead giving a mention date within a period of 21 days. The four were arrested on Thursday during a demonstration in Nairobi’s CBD in memory of youth killed during the invasion of parliament on the 25th. DCI officers had sought to hold the 5, saying they were investigating allegations of computer misuse and cybercrime, unlawful assembly, and incitement. The court was informed that the offenses are still under investigation. Police claim Mwangi and the others were distributing t-shirts and placards with inciteful messages. Further the investigators argued that the group disrupted public order by blocking roads with a coffin and seven white crosses inscribed with names.
