    High Court Judge Lawrence Mugambi has set aside both the conviction and six-month jail sentence handed to Deputy Police Inspector General, Gilbert Masengeli. Justice Lawrence Mugambi said he was convinced that Masengeli regrets his actions after the apology he tendered in court earlier today. Mugambi noted that the intention of the court was not to punish Masengeli but to ensure that the sentence restores dignity to the court. Justice Mugambi subsequently recused himself from the case and referred the matter to the Chief Justice to constitute a bench to hear the case following a further application made by the Law Society of Kenya.
