Ex-CS Michael Kamaus home raided

Anti-corruption detectives have raided the home of former Transport CS Michael Kamau in Nairobi.

The officials from the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) conducted the raid at Windy Ridge, Karen on Tuesday morning.

Eng. Kamau had been charged with abuse of office in 2015 but the case was dismissed.

The Court of Appeal found that the EACC was not properly constituted by the time it was forwarding the names for prosecution.

Later on, the former CS sought to have his case be terminated by way of discharge and not acquittal.

However, in April, Justice Hedwig Ong’undi declined to set aside the orders paving the way for fresh charges.

“The appeal was not based on the manner the investigations were carried out or the innocence of the applicant.

“That is why the court of appeal did not get into the substance of the investigations undertaken by EACC,” he ruled.
