A Magistrates Court has freed activist Boniface Mwangi and four others accused of publishing false information.
Milimani Principal Magistrate Gilbert Shikwe released the suspects saying the Prosecution did not convince the court that they needed two more weeks to complete their probe.
"I decline to allow police to continue with the investigations for two or more weeks. I here y release the suspects unconditionally," said the Magistrate.
The court subsequently ordered that their cash bail be released, which they had been freed on, when they first appeared in court on July 26, 2024.
Boniface was set free alongside Albert Wambugu, Pablo Chacha, Robert Otieno and Erot Franco.
They were accused of publishing false material, unlawful assembly and creating disturbance.
Speaking after their release outside Milimani Law Courts, Mwangi demanded the release of three Kenyans whose whereabouts remain unknown.
The three were allegedly abducted by unknown individuals in Kitengela, Kajiado County.
The three are Bob Micheni, Jamil Longton and Aslam Longton.
"Our demand is, that you release these three men and every other person who is missing, unconditionally," he said.
Mwangi said he would be marching to the State House to submit a list containing the names of all missing people.
"We are planning to go to State House to give President William Ruto a list of the missing people. We shall march to State House tumpatie kwani? So it's a public house," the activist.
