Blogger Boniface Mulinge Muteti got bail set at fifteen thousand shillings in a Nairobi court. He faces a cybercrime charge for posts on his X account last week. Prosecutors claim he spread false information that politicians stole all their wealth, which could incite public unrest.
Muteti pleaded not guilty to the charge. His defense argued he was not a flight risk. The court ordered the prosecution to share all evidence with the defense team ahead of trial.
He was arrested by the DCI's serious crimes unit and held over the weekend. The case will be mentioned again later this month.
