High Court orders release of MP John Kaguchia on KSh100,000 bail

The High Court has ordered the immediate release of Mukurweini MP John Kaguchia upon payment of KSh 100,000 in police cash bail. Lady Justice Njoki Mwangi certified his application as urgent and granted interim orders, directing that the legislator be freed pending the hearing of his case. The court further directed that an application filed by Kaguchia's lawyers be heard virtually on September 16, 2026. Kaguchia, however, remains in custody at Kamukunji Police Station awaiting his release.
