Mumias East MP Peter Salasya has been set free after he had been apprehended following an assault against a Kakamega Member of County Assembly on Friday.
The controversial youthful lawmaker was freed on a Ksh.50,000 police cash bail and is set to appear in court on Tuesday, January 16.
Salsya is facing charges of assault, causing physical harm and creating a disturbance in a way that could lead to a breach of peace.
Salasya was on Friday caught on camera slapping Peter Walunya, the area MCA while attending a funeral in Mumias.
In a video that has since gone viral on social media platforms, Salasya is heard imploring the MCA to sit down and after he failed to comply, he landed on him with a hot slap.
The incident stirred mixed reactions on social media, with a section of Kenyans including politicians calling out the MP for his actions.
Police say that during the incident, two of Salasya’s security personnel allegedly fired shots into the air.

let the dynasty grouped themselves,so that we can slaughter them at once.
When Murathe says "we" I wonder who it is that he is referring to. Anyway, I believe the road to state house for Dr.WSR might be bumpy but surely the Murathe's of this country can't stop Dr.WSR from getting there! I MIGHT BE WRONG BUT I AM RIGHT.
