Charles Kerich ordered to surrender to Industrial Area Prison

Charles Kerich, a suspended Nairobi Finance County Executive Committee (CEC) member, was ordered by Justice Francis Gikonyo of Milimani High Court to surrender to Industrial Area Remand Prison immediately. This follows the court's refusal to suspend his three-month jail term for contempt of court, which stemmed from unpaid KSh106.7 million in legal fees. Kerich appeared in court virtually for the first time on Tuesday morning. The court denied his request to replace the jail sentence with a fine, requiring him to serve the sentence without delay.
