What Mutunga actually said

Following widespread media reports concerning a New Year Eve incident that occurred at the Village Market, Nairobi involving an alleged row between a security guard Mrs Rebecca Kerubo and Deputy Chief Justice Mrs Nancy Baraza I released a press statement on January 5.

In my statement I reiterated my commitment to the rule of law and my steadfast belief in the equality of all before the law. I further noted the public interest generated by the incident at the Village Market and promised that the organs at the Judiciary will deal with the incident "conclusively and satisfactorily."
