Justice Lawrence Mugambi has set aside the 6-month jail sentence against Administration Police Deputy Inspector General Gilbert Masengeli after he appeared to court.

In his ruling, while allowing him to take the stand to explain himself, Justice Mugambi said that he will be going against his ruling if he does not allow Masengeli to redeem himself."This is a court of justice and must act fairly to those who appear before it. Gilbert Masengeli is entitled to be heard by virtue of this order. I will allow him to take to the stand and redeem himself," Mugambi stated.

He was accompanied by Attorney General Dorcas Oduor who was leading the state defense as he sought to beat the deadline for his suspended jail sentence. Witnesses said the men believed to be State agents picked the two brothers near their home in Kigengela.
