Blogger Cyprian Nyakundi was Monday morning roughed up and arrested by police from the Special Crimes Prevention Unit at the Milimani courts in Nairobi and taken to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations headquarters.
The blogger has revealed that he is currently being held at Muthaiga police station.
The blogger was attending a courts session for a mention of a defamation case filed by Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i after he claimed the CS was involved in an extra-marital affair with a choir lady in a church.
Recently, he was charged before a Kiambu court with posting online prerogative remarks against Kirinyaga Governor Anne Waiguru, Nairobi’s Mike Sonko and Kenya Power Managing Director Ken Tarus.
The blogger has been recently at the receiving end of security personnel as he was frequently arrested for incitement.
