Former Presidential Aspirant Jimi Wanjigi on Monday revealed that he was arrested by detectives at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
In a statement, the businessman termed his arrest illegal and accused the law enforcement of breaching court orders in effecting his detention.
Wanjigi had earlier presented himself at the DCI headquarters in connection with the Nane Nane protests as per the police order.
"The DCI have illegally arrested me despite numerous court orders barring the same arrest," the businessman shared.
In an earlier video that went viral on the internet, the businessman was seen confronting police officers after arriving at DCI headquarters.
In a video, he is ordered to board a car which he adamantly refused to enter but eventually hops onto it. "Do not order me, do not touch me," he was heard shouting.
On August 8, the businessman found himself rubbing shoulders the wrong way with the law enforcement who criticised him of funding the protests.
Wanjigi had earlier criticised the government for taking loans that are unsustainable
