A witness in a case where Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria and his Kabete counterpart Ferdinand Waititu are charged with hate speech, told court he could not tell who made the offending words.
Benson Gicheru, a police officer, told court he only heard some of the words uttered on June 12 at a function organised by radio presenter Njogu wa Njoroge but could not tell who uttered them.
Gicheru, who is attached to Deputy County Commissioner’s office, said he had been deployed to the said event as commander of officers who had been assigned to maintain peace.
The witness told senior principal magistrate Charity Oluoch that the said function began at around 12pm but speeches began at around 4pm.
Another witness, Jackson Kemboi an Inspector attached to Directorate of Criminal Investigation, Cyber Crime Unit, said he downloaded the clip on the alleged hate speech remarks on YouTube. Kuria and Waititu are out on a cash bail of Sh2 million each.
