Gachagua atatoa rufaa mahakamani kupinga uamuzi wa kuhifadhi kutimuliwa kwake

Aliyekuwa naibu rais Rigathi Gachagua amesema atapeleka kesi yake mahakama ya rufaa baada ya mahakama kuu kuhifadhi uamuzi wa seneti wa kumtimua kazi.

Gachagua alitoa taarifa hiyo Jumanne tarehe 9 Juni 2026. Alisema anapinga uamuzi wa majaji Eric Ogolla, Anthony Mrima na Fridah Mugambi ambao walikataa kubatilisha kutimuliwa kwake.

Mahakama iligundua kuwa haki ya Gachagua ya kusikilizwa kwa haki ilikiukwa na ikampa fidia ya shilingi milioni 50. Hata hivyo ilisema makosa ya seneti hayaharamishi uamuzi wa bunge la kitaifa.

Gachagua alisema kanuni za haki ya asili zilipuuzwa na kwamba atatumia njia zote za kisheria hadi mahakama kuu. Alisisitiza kwamba anaiheshimu mahakama lakini anapinga tafsiri ya sheria.
