A High Court Judge in Mombasa has ordered prison authorities to produce 19 former soldiers who were recently convicted to life imprisonment before a civilian court. Justice Martin Muya also ordered the three military courts to supply defence lawyers and the High Court with the proceedings leading to the convictions between March 2014 and mid this month.
The soldiers, who were accused of deserting their naval stations in 2007 and 2008 ‘during war time’ to work for US security firms in Iraq, Afghanistan and Kuwait were convicted and jailed by three Judge Advocates.
