Kenya public prosecutor orders arrest of Nairobi governor on suspicion of economic crimes sabcnews

Noordin Haji, the country’s top prosecutor, told a news conference that he had sufficient evidence to order the arrest and arraignment of Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko.

He also named county government officials whom he said he had evidence to prosecute for various economic crimes, as well as a number of business people over alleged money laundering related to Sonko’s alleged crimes.He spends significant periods of time outside of Nairobi in his hometown of Machakos southeast of the capital. Calls to Sonko’s phone numbers went unanswered immediately after the prosecutor’s news conference.

Haji said the governor attempted to obstruct the investigations “by deploying intimidation tactics using goons to threaten law enforcement officials”.When Sonko reported to Kenya’s anti-corruption office for questioning, protests formed outside the office and police used teargas to disperse demonstrators.
