NAIROBI, Kenya, Oct 24 – The high court has ordered the expeditious disposal of an application seeking the production of Wajir member of County assembly who was abducted one month ago.

Justice Alexander Muteti said a medical report has indicated that the body which was found in a lake in wajir it is not Yussuf Hassan Ahmed, the MCA who was abducted on 13th September 2024 in South b.

The judge consequently ordered that the application be heard tomorrow at 2pm.

He said that the matter is serious, and during the hearing, the office of the Dpp and attorney general applied to have the application terminated.

During the proceedings, a prosecutor from the Office of the DPP sought to have the matter adjourned, but the court declined.
