Makueni Senator Mutula Kilonzo Jnr has weighed in on the continued detainment of lawyer Miguna Miguna.
The senator believes the Inspector General of police and the Director of Criminal Investigation (DCI) George Kinoti are liable for a contempt of Court and so should be jailed.
In a tweet on Monday, Mutula pointed out that Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentist Union (KMPDU) landed in jail for the same reason and so the IG and his 'boys' should not be treated any different when they appear in Court on Tuesday.
"Officials of KMPDU landed in jail for contempt of Court. IG Boinett and his Boys should not be treated any differently when they appear in court tomorrow! Miguna Miguna is a suspect under the law!" tweeted Mutula.
On Monday, High Court Judge Luka Kimaru had asked the IG and the DCI to produce Miguna in Court by 2pm failure to which they would be in contempt of Court.
The controversial lawyer was however not produced in Court and Judge Kimaru has given another order requiring the IG and DCI to appear in Court tomorrow (Tuesday) at 9am.
Miguna has been in police custody since Friday and recent reports from his lawyers indicate that his health is not good.
