The Environment and Lands Court has issued a warrant of arrest against Machakos Governor Alfred Mutua.
The warrant was issued by Machakos Principle Magistrate C.N Ondieki after failing to pay a sum of Sh5,590,443.15 to businessman David Gitau Thairu following the courts directive on July 30, 2020.
The court ordered the OCS Machakos Police Station to present Mutua in court as fast as they can.
“These are to command you to arrest the said Governor, County Government of Machakos and unless they shall pay to you the sum of Kshs 5,590,443.15/= as noted in the margin, together with executing officer’s expenses and fees if any to bring the Governor, County Government of Machakos before the Court with all convenient speed,” Judge Ondieki directed.
