The four were arrested on Tuesday at Integrity Centre, where they had accompanied Governor Mike Sonko for interrogation.

The four John Abok, Joseph Mwangi Karai, Kennedy Odhiambo and Richard Bosire appeared before senior principal Kennedy Cheruiyot and denied two other counts of resisting arrest and taking part in an unlawful assembly.

They were re-arrested immediately by plain clothes police officers, after they were released on bail.

Through lawyer George Kithi they asked to be released on reasonable bail terms saying that they are not a flight risk as they are employees of Nairobi county government.

The magistrate directed them to post cash bail of sh100,000 each, to secure their release.

The case will be mentioned on November 20 for pretrial.
