Police officers who were Investigating journalist Walter Menya’s case have been asked to give him back his electronics if they are done with analyzing them.
This is after the court was told that police are yet to return electronics belonging to the Daily Nation journalist.
No charges were preferred against Menya after a directive by the Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko.
Menya was arrested on allegations of demanding money to publish a story which interested Kennedy Koros in the Sunday Nation.
It was also alleged by the police that the journalist had received a down payment of Ksh 32,000 through M-Pesa between June 15 and 17.
It was alleged that he published the story with the headline ‘Civil Servants in JP Foundation say all they want is to alleviate poverty’ and went to Koros to collect the balance after the story was published.
