A 50-year-old terminally ill convict, who has been in prison for the last 17 years, has accused the government of denying him medical care, despite obtaining court orders to facilitate his treatment.
Peter Njeru Kinyua, who is serving a sentence at Kamiti Main Prison after he was charged robbery with violence on March 3, 2004 by a court in Embu, says he has been denied life-saving drugs and specialised treatment at Kenyatta National Hospital.
