A Mombasa court has acquitted Kilifi Deputy Governor Gideon Saburi of charges of willfully exposing himself in public while suffering from Covid-19 without taking proper precautions.
Mombasa chief magistrate Edna Nyaloti ruled that by the time Mr Saburi was being charged, Covid-19 had not been declared an infectious disease.
The accused is alleged to have committed the offence between March 6 and 22 last year within Kilifi County.
