" I decline the application by the state and l hereby direct that the state to charge the suspect within seven days from today," Nyamu noted.
"Police arrested and detained Mwendwa irregularly which exhibited bad faith. They brought him to the court without a holding charge even after detaining him for a whole weekend," her ruling stated.
