Lawyer Nelson Havi insists that people who had arrested TJ Kajwang, Miguna Miguna and Makadara Member of Parliament George Aladwa were not policemen.

On Saturday, Havi claimed that the armed individuals purported to be police were criminals under the command of depots.

According to the lawyer, the individuals involved in arrest of the NASA team measured less than 4ft in height and had behaviours that didn’t align to those of policemen.

“Individuals undertaking these kidnappings, including that of TJ Kajwang, Miguna Miguna and Makadara MP George Aladwa are not policemen but armed criminals under the command of despots. Which policeman measures less than 4 ft. in height, behaves and looks like a hardened street boy?” said Havi on his Twitter account.

The three were arrested after facilitating the controversialRaila Odinga swearing-in as the People’s President on January 30. 

Ruaraka MP TJ Kajwang was arrested on Wednesday afternoon byplainclothes police officers outside the Milimani Law Courts in Nairobi whileMiguna Miguna, who witnessed Raila swearing, was arrested at his home in Runda Estate.

The government is yet to honour the court order to free Miguna Miguna after Lawyer Nelson Havi went to court to champion his release.
