The Judicial Service Commission (JSC) has launched an investigation into bribery allegations against Migori-based Environment and Land Court Judge Fred Nyagaka. Businessman Ben Limo claims he paid KSh 10 million to the judge for a favorable ruling, which was not delivered.

• The JSC confirmed the investigation, citing its mandate to uphold integrity.
• Journalist Collins Kweyu was arrested while attempting to get a comment from Justice Nyagaka, leading to widespread criticism.
• Lawyers Nelson Havi and Ahmednasir Abdullahi have weighed in, with Havi suggesting the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) should handle the probe instead of the DCI.
