MOMBASA, KENYA: Some 26 former naval servicemen facing desertion charges will now move to the Supreme Court to try and secure bail after the Court of Appeal in Malindi yesterday reversed a High Court order issued on April 30 in Mombasa freeing them pending trial by a court martial.
The State has put them on trial alleging they deserted the Kenyan Defence Forces (KDF) to work for a US security firm in Kuwait, Afghanistan and Iraq between 2007 and 2008.
