Samburu Governor Moses Lenolkulal fails to raise bail money, still in police cell
Samburu Governor Moses Lenolkulal is still being held at the Industrial Area Remand Prison after he was unable to raise the Ksh.100million cash bail set on Tuesday.
The embattled Governor filed for a review of the bail amount at the High Court Anti Corruption Division on Wednesday morning.
“My Lord the accused is greatly aggrieved by the said terms which are completely outrageous and unprecedented. It goes against the bail and bond policy, specifically that the bond amount should not be excessive and should not be greater than necessary to guarantee that the accused persons will appear in court,” lawyer Paul Nyamodi said.
The advocate further assured the court that his client does not pose a flight risk because of his capacity as the Samburu Governor.
Sources however indicate that the Director of Public Prosecution is yet to be served with the applicable documents for review.
