Acting Inspector General Gilbert Masengeli has been sentenced to six months in prison after being found guilty of contempt of court.
Masengeli may avoid serving the sentence if he appears in court within the next seven days.
Justice Lawrence Mugambi ordered that he submits himself to commissioner general of prisons.
"In event he doesn't submit himself CS Interior must take all steps to ensure he is committed to prison to serve sentence.
Masengeli can redeem himself by availing himself before this court in person to answer to the issues which he has been avoiding failure to do so the sentence will become effect," the Judge said.
Prior to the sentencing, the Acting IG made a last minute attempt to stop his sentencing.
Miller persuaded the Judge to suspend today's sentence saying he was truly unable to attend due to the nature his of work.
But the Judge declined saying
"As a court I wouldn't want to be unfair to anyone. I've done more than I could to accommodate him. I gave him more than fare chances. I even accommodated him on the last day."
On Monday, he was found guilty of contempt by the same court.
Masengeli was required to appear in court on Monday to explain the circumstances surrounding the disappearance of three people in Kitengela.
