Police in Nyeri held Gold Coast Commonwealth 800metres silver medallist Margaret Nyairera’s mother throughout the weekend over a controversial piece of land. She divulged that the officers, who arrested her mother, had gone to oversee the fencing of the property before resolving to initiate the arrest. "I understand that they had documents which they presented to my mother but she cannot read. She resorted to screaming and that is when she was arrested,” the athlete told Daily Nation on Sunday. Kieni OCPD Ahmed Ali confirmed that Nyairera's mother will be presented before the Nyeri Law Courts on Monday to be charged with forcible detainer.
