A man accused of disrupting a photo session of CS Treasury Njuguna Ndung'u by yelling and shouting was Friday charged before a Nairobi court.
Eric Mankuyu was charged alongside Julius Kamau who did not plead to the charges.
Mankuyu was charged that jointly with others not before the court, he created a disturbance in a manner likely to cause a breach of peace by yelling, shouting and attempting to disrupt the photo shooting session by the Cabinet Secretary National Treasury and Economic Planning and his delegates.
They are alleged to have committed the offence on June 13 at the Treasury Building along Harambee Avenue.
Mankuyu denied the charges before Milimani senior principal magistrate Benard Ochoi and pleaded for lenient bond terms.
However, Kamau was ordered to be taken for mental assessment as he kept shouting in court saying the government was oppressing the poor.
He was calmed down by the court orderly as he kept issuing insults.
The magistrate directed that a report on his mental fitness be tabled in court next week on Tuesday when he will plead to the charges.
Mankuyu was released on a cash bail of Sh10,000.
The case will be mentioned on June 26.
On Thursday, there was a minor incident outside the Treasury after a man tried to interrupt a photo session of the Budget team led by Treasury CS Njunguna Ndung'u.
The man, dressed in black was seen holding something in his hand and was going up the stairs to meet the Treasury before police officers bundled him away.
