The prosecution now says embattled Preacher Eliud Wekesa alias Yesu Wa Tongaren has no case to answer.
This is after the state said there was no enough evidence to charge him, he was accused of unlawful operation of an unregistered society, radicalisation and money laundering.
Wekesa had been in police custody for the last four days as he was undergoing a mental assessment test, after being declared mentally unstable.
“The court has agreed and granted permission to the prosecution side to detain the suspect for four more days to allow them to complete the probe and carry out the mental assessment,” Olando said.
Last week, he was summoned by the Bungoma DCI officer Elijah Macharia for questioning over his New Jerusalem church and has been in police custody.
Roots Party Leader George Wajackoyah represented Yesu wa Tongaren in court.
On May 10 said he will not need lawyers if arraigned over his church activities.
He said he did not break any law and he shall be set free once the interrogation is done.
“If I am arraigned, I don’t plan to have any physical lawyer to defend me but instead my lawyers will be the sun and the moon since before God I have done nothing wrong,” he said.
