Advocate Ndegwa Njiru has revealed that former Kakamega Senator Cleophas Malala, who was arrested in a dramatic ambush on Wednesday night, is being held at the Eldama Ravine Police Station.

Malala, whose arrest rests on a controversial play, Echoes of War, that he authored for Butere Girls Secondary School, was whisked away last night by officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigation, and Njiru has been following his whereabouts since. "Advocates from Nakuru Cleophas Malala, one of the Gitungatis from western Kenya and a strong pillar of our struggle is being held at Eldama Ravine Police Station.

Kindly and urgently mobilise.

He is a prisoner of conscience," he wrote on Thursday morning.
