It was steep fall for the men accused of attempting to kill millions of Kenyans from their comfortable offices to cold police cells and the hard benches of Milimani Law Courts.

Kenya Bureau of Standards (Kebs) managing director Charles Ongwae was among the 12 suspects who sat in the dock for many hours yesterday as the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) argued with their lawyers over the push to deny them bail until the criminal trial was concluded.
