The High Court has issued interim conservatory orders barring the Inspector General of Police and the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) from arresting embattled Nairobi County Chief Officer for Housing and Urban Renewal, Lydia Mathia, without a warrant of arrest duly issued by a competent court.
Justice Bahati Mwamuye issued the directive following an application filed by Mathia seeking legal protection amid ongoing investigations into her alleged role in a series of controversial demolitions across the city.
