The High Court has summoned the OCS of Central Police Station to appear in person on July 16 to explain why he failed to arrest and produce media mogul SK Macharia over alleged contempt of court in the Directline Assurance dispute.
Justice Francis Gikonyo directed that the officer appear before him at 2 p.m. in open court Thursday after Macharia was not presented as earlier ordered to answer allegations that he disobeyed court orders issued in the long-running battle over the control of Directline Assurance Company Limited.
The judge ordered that the OCS personally account for the failure to enforce the court's directives.
"The appearance shall be in person in open court to explain why he can not execute the orders of this court or to confirm he has executed the orders," Justice Gikonyo directed.
