Masengeli Presents Himself Before The Court For Sentencing
Controversial Deputy Inspector General of Police Gilbert Masengeli on Friday morning appeared in court in a bid to purge his six-month jail sentence over the disappearance of three missing Kenyans.
The three are Jamil Longton (42), Aslam Longton (36) and activist Bob Njagi were found this morning after being dumped in a bush Gachie.
Despite the three being found Masengeli will still have to redeem himself since the court had already sentenced him to 6 months imprisnoment.
The sentence was to take effect today, Friday with Masengeli being represented by a team of lawyers led by Attorney General Dorcus Oduor, Advocate Cecil Miller and Steve Ogolla.
Masengelichanged his character on Thursday after he told the court that he was ready to appear before the court.
Through Advocates Cecil Miller and Steve Ogolla he informed the presiding judge of the High Court Chacha Mwita that their client is able to appear in court between 12 noon and 2 pm, on Friday.
The file was placed before Judge Mwita because Judge Mugambi was part of a three-judge bench handling a different case.
He was unable to attend to the same.
Masengeli's legal team pleaded with the court to allow their client to appear in court Thursday as the six-month jail sentence was supposed to take effect Friday.
