VIDEO: Former CJ David Maraga arrested during protest over Nairobi National Park

Former Chief Justice David Maraga was arrested on Monday during a protest against the proposed construction of infrastructure within Nairobi National Park.

Maraga was bundled into a police vehicle shortly after joining demonstrators near the park.

Footage obtained by The Standard shows the former Chief Justice alongside members of his campaign team attempting to take cover amid fears of an imminent police crackdown outside the park.

Police also arrested nine other protesters who had gathered to oppose the proposed development project, which conservationists argue could threaten the park's fragile ecosystem and wildlife habitat.
