The human rights activist further noted that the three attacked him leaving him nursing serious injuries.

However, the three denied all the charges and were granted a bond of Ksh300,000 each and a surety of a similar amount. The next hearing of the case is set for April 2.

"Taken the consideration of the offence, I have granted as it is their constitutional right a bond of Ksh300,000 each with surety of similar amount," the judge stated.

"The accused persons will not contact or interfere with the witnesses or even the complainant and they should stay away within the radius of 15 kilometres from the resident of the complainant or his place of work," the judge directed.
