Karen Hospital has advised the Directorate of Criminal Investigations ( DCI) against detaining Keroche Breweries Director Joseph Karanja in a police cell.
In a letter issued on Thursday 22 August, 2019, the hospital says he has a serious heart condition.
According to Dr Gikonyo of Karen Hospital, Joseph Karanja has undergone a life saving surgery and keeping him under police custody will greatly endanger his life.
Joseph Karanja and his wife Tabitha Karanja were on Thursday afternoon arrested over alleged Sh14.4b tax evasion following orders from the Director of Public Prosecutions Noordin Haji.
The public prosecutor had on Wednesday ordered the arrest of Keroche Breweries Limited proprietors over allegations of Sh14 billion tax fraud.
The entrepreneurs through their lawyer James Orengo had on Thursday morning moved to court seeking to stop DPP Noordin Haji from prosecuting them for 10 counts of tax evasion.
The couple spent the night holed up in their office in Naivasha as DCI and KRA officers camped at the gate.
Thursday afternoon, court issued a search and arrest warrant to DCI officers seeking to arrest the couple who had locked themselves in their factory in Naivasha.

nothing like Justice in Kenya's electoral body.this greediest must vacate the office
Your Comment : I have now believed that we do not have an independent electoral and boundaries commission , instead we have a congregation of greedy individuals out to misuse Kenyans and bring chaos to our country. #Remove them. #clean the top leadership.
Congratulations to Governor Mutua,you really deserve to lead in the best performing governors,,, those ranked last should be dealt with accordingly for misappropriating public funds

Hehehe, supporting somebody was not an agreement in the handshake my friends!! Remember Raila caused many to die during the era of maandamano hence Uhuru devised a method how to tame this power hungry man!! Mariga must win
Your Raila and uhuru come from different political party,. Everyone is free to handle his party issues and i salute the president for supporting mariga being the jubilee candidate. Raila is also supporting the odm candidate and no one is against that. Some people are taking handshake as political party while it's not. Please mr mp style up.
