Mutemi returned to court today 20th April for the mention of the case. The ODPP ambushed the court with a proposal to withdraw the matter under Section 87.
The magistrate sought for reasons which were not forthcoming.
The defense opposed the ODPP application .
The magistrate concurred with the defense and made the following orders.
1. All orders imposed on 8th April revoked including cash bail to be refunded immediately, gag orders lifted and daily visitation to investigation officer stopped
2. No more harassment of Mutemi by police based on similar charges
3. Next mention 21 May to give further guidance including return of equipment confiscated by the police
