Bungoma County Senator Moses Wetangula has now come out to slam Milimani Law Court's Lady Justice Jessie Lessit for her bail terms when releasing embattled Migori Governor Okoth Obado.
“Justice Lessit must reconsider the bond/bail terms imposed on Gov Obado. It's unfair and unjust to give with the right hand and take away with the left!! It amounts to "house imprisonment" The court can always vary bail terms or suspend the bond upon breach.”
Governor Obado was released on Thursday, October 25 on a Ksh 5 million bail over the murder of the second year Medical Records student at Rongo University, Sharon Otieno.
However, his bail terms were very tough, which prompted Senator Wetangula to comment on the issue.
Among the tough conditions, Governor Obado was banned from going to his home county Migori.
He was only allowed movement within a 20-kilometre restricted radius from his home.
The Ford Kenya leader, Moses Wetangula termed this as house imprisonment.
More so, he was banned from mentioning Sharon’s name to anyone.
He would also need to seek a court order before travelling out of the country as his travel documents were seized.
Obado will also not contact any of his employees listed as witnesses in the case.
