Digital strategist Pauline Njoroge is set to be arraigned at Malindi Law Courts on Monday, July 24, at 9:00 AM.
Speaking to Journalists on phone, her lawyer Soyinka Lempaa revealed that Pauline was currently being moved from Watamu Police Station to appear before the court to answer a case on being in possession of narcotics.
While dismissing the charges, the lawyer complained that his client was being harassed for political reasons.
“We are here at Malindi and Pauline is upbeat despite spending the weekend in jail with her colleague Jane Nduta,” he told journalists
On the charges placed against her, Lempaa stated, “Those are baseless allegations. They were just fabricated as a reason to hold her.”
Lempaa also dismissed earlier claims that Pauline had made a political post that ruffled feathers within the government.
“They have been following her for a long time. Her being arrested on Saturday, July 22, had been a long time coming,” he explained.
The lawyer did not disclose whether Pauline and Nduta would plead guilty or not to the charges against them.
According to police reports, Pauline was found in a clear container containing ten (10) tablets suspected to be narcotic substances.
A further search revealed that she was in possession of an extra 50 tablets which were also suspected to be of narcotics substance.
Lempaa dismissed the police report, noting that at no particular time was Pauline in possession of any narcotics substance.
Jubilee Party and Azimio Coalition have maintained that Pauline is being detained due to her constant criticism of President William Ruto’s government.
