Eric Omondi é liberado mediante pagamento de fiança de 100.000 xelins

O comediante e ativista Eric Omondi foi liberado na segunda-feira pelo Tribunal de Milimani, em Nairóbi, após passar o fim de semana sob custódia.

Omondi foi preso na sexta-feira, 5 de junho de 2026, pouco depois de pousar no Aeroporto Internacional Jomo Kenyatta. Ele enfrenta acusações de obstruir motoristas na Kimathi Street em 18 de maio de 2026, ao descarregar 120 galões de plástico vazios de um caminhão. Sua equipe jurídica, liderada pelo deputado Babu Owino, classificou as acusações como infundadas e afirmou que a prisão violou direitos constitucionais. A polícia na delegacia de Lang'ata negou-lhe a fiança durante o fim de semana. O tribunal o liberou mediante um compromisso pessoal de 100.000 xelins. O caso retorna ao tribunal em 22 de junho.
