Itumbi Sues The Govt, Case Could Deal A Major Blow To ICC
Blogger Dennis Itumbi is once again back to the corridors of justice. This time the blogger/ whistle-blower is suing the Government for the illegal arrests last year. Through his lawyer, Itumbi has written to the Attorney General demanding for information in regard to his arrest and detention.
This case could deal a major blow to the International Criminal Court (ICC) after it ruled last year that it had nothing to do with the arrest and categorically declined to award Itumbi any compensation. Itumbi strongly believes that he actually be handing ICC the biggest blow ever proving that they lied and that in fact they had everything to do with the arrest.
At the same time, the blogger is aiming at hitting two birds with one stone; that of exposing ICC and channeling some cash into his account through compensation.
In April this year, Itumbi won a suit against fellow blogger Robert Alai forcing Alai to compensate him almost KSh40 million. (Read about that HERE). For now, let’s wait and see if the Judicial system will award him the damages.
