Boniface Mwangi's legal team have denied claims made by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) regarding items found in the activist's possession at the time of his arrest.
Led by advocate Njanja Maina, the team accused the police of planting evidence in an attempt to charge him with terrorist offences.
Speaking outside the Pangani Police Station on Sunday July 20, Maina dismissed the DCI's earlier statement, which claimed that Mwangi had been found in possession of a blank round and tear gas canisters during a search of his office. "We have seen a statement by the DCI today that there are items that were picked from his office.
We can confirm and state with no uncertainty that those are things which he did not have in his possession.
