The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) is seeking 15 days to keep detaining three allies of MP George Koimburi, among them Juja Constituency Development Fund (CDF) Chairman Peter Kiratu, over what they termed as a stage-managed abduction. The other two are David Macharia Gatana and Cirus Kieru Muhia.

However, on Thursday, an attempt by DCI officers to secure a court hearing flopped as the chief magistrate had already left for the day.
