Kenya's Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua sued by KHRC, MUHURI for disparaging remarks against High Court Judge Esther Maina.

Kenya's Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has been sued by human rights organizations KHRC and MUHURI for allegedly disparaging remarks against High Court Judge Esther Maina. The groups claim Gachagua's comments, calling Maina "corrupt," could lead to constitutional anarchy and diminish the judiciary's honor. They demand an apology and retraction within 14 days of the court's judgment, and an order stating Gachagua's unproven corruption claims pose a threat to Maina.
