Gatundu South MP Moses Kuria has denied two counts of incitement to violence.

The MP denied the charge yesterday when he appeared before Senior Principal Magistrate Kenneth Cheruiyot.

The court was informed that the MP committed the offense on June 26, 2015 at Gatundu stadium in Gatundu town within Kiambu County.

 He is said to have uttered words that indicated it was desirable to bring death and physical injury to people.

The law maker earlier successfully objected to being charged with a "defective incitement", which he said was unconstitutional. A witness testified under protection.
