Three civilians who had been detained at the Central Police Station, Nairobi, on the night of the blogger Albert Ojwang's death have been arrested in connection with the case.
According to the Independent Police Oversight Authority (IPOA), the three were instructed by police officers at the station to torture Ojwang to death while in custody.
Although the reasons for their initial arrests have not been made public yet, they are said to have been released shortly after Ojwang's death.
Following IPOA's probe, they were re-arrested on Sunday and are currently being held separately at Kilimani, Muthangari, and Kileleshwa Police Stations.
