Kenya deports Miguna Miguna, again

What you need to know:

  • One of his lawyers, Mr Nelson Havi, confirmed that Dr Miguna was taken out of Kenya via a Dubai-bound EK722 flight.

  • Lawyer Cliff Ombeta, who also represented Dr Miguna, confirmed that his client was deported via EK722 to Dubai.
  • He alleged that Dr Miguna “was sedated, handcuffed and taken away”.

Lawyer Miguna Miguna has been deported, again, despite a court order directing the government to release him from detention at Jomo Kenyatta airport in Nairobi.

The fiery lawyer and National Super Alliance (Nasa) activist was ejected on Wednesday evening after spending more than 72 hours in a tiny room he described as a “toilet” near Terminal 2.
