Manyatta Member of Parliament Gitonga Mukunji claims that his arrest, which happened on Monday, July 7, during the Saba Saba Day demonstrations, is a form of intimidation from the government.
Mukunji is believed to have been apprehended over allegations of incitement to violence during the protests.
Speaking at the Kahawa Law Court on Tuesday, June 8, the lawmaker claimed that the charges presented in court do not carry weight to convict him of a crime.
Mukunji asserted that he will remain at the vanguard in advocating for the rights of Kenyans despite such setbacks.
