The election commission says three people working for a firm contracted to deploy technology during the upcoming polls were arrested without justification after landing in the country.

The three employees of Smartmatic International B.V. were arrested upon arrival at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) from Venezuela, the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) said in a statement Thursday evening.
