Proceed with caution here. What was the court-case outcome? He was released after paying a fine of I think 300k. This is from the Nation newspaper DRIVING WHILE DRUNK
A man who died on Gatundu Road in Nairobi’s Kileleshwa area at 3am on December 10, this year, joins the list of people killed on the road and whose families are looking up to the courts for justice.
Mr Sitati was charged with causing death by dangerous driving and the prosecution says he was drink-driving on the wrong lane when he killed the father of five.
The fact that Mr Sitati was given a Sh50,000 police bond after his arrest, ahead of his appearing in court on December 16 — meaning he was going on with his duties shortly after the incident — is sure to draw questions from some Kenyans who are often quick to complain that some influential people are left to roam free shortly after being detained.
Mr Kipsanai’s death evokes memories of a guard who was killed in Nairobi’s Runda estate when billionaire businessman Joel Kibe crashed into a security barrier on the morning of February 1, 2016.
Prosecutors said Mr Kibe was driving a Range Rover Vogue while drunk. He denied charges against him and was released on a Sh300,000 bond.
BBI will solve it :)
