EJK has just been stepped up

Khalwale: This is a long en complex ruling. We are currently winning on many scores but again loosing out on some of our prayers. So far so good!

Kenya will have to make a choice. If she continues with EJK she has to be prepared to lose her monopoly over it. The result will be equal killing fields, normally called "Civil War". No Third World country has chosen EJK and avoided Civil War!

Was expected but not by those who have eyes and did not want to see.
That a learned fellow like the AG Githu Muigai aka Mortician let these laws be forwarded to parliament tells it all about his independence. The author of these laws was actually the Solicitor General Njee Muturi who happens to be also Uhuru's personal lawyer. Talk of conflict of interests.

The High Court has declared eight sections of Security Laws (Amendment) Act 2014 unconstitutional.
Justices Isaac Lenaola, Mumbi Ngugi, Hedwig Ong'udi, Hillary Chemitei and Louis Onguto annulled sections 12, 16, 20, 26, 34, 64, 48 and 95 of the law.
The judges made their ruling on Monday.
Sections violating the freedom of the media and the freedom of expression are among those that were nullified.
The judges also upheld an accused person's right to be informed of evidence against him, and the right to be released on bond or bail given reasonable conditions.
The ruling was on a case filed by Cord challenging the anti-terror laws.
Cord complained that Jubilee broke all the rules of procedure in the National Assembly to pass the bill.
President Uhuru Kenyatta signed the bill into law on December 19, 2014 after Parliament passed it during a chaotic session the previous day.
Cord filed a petition in the High Court a few days later, accusing the state of trying to claw back on the freedoms granted by the new constitution.
The coalition saw the new law as misuse by the ruling coalition of its majority in the House.

It's good to know the judiciary is functioning as it was meant;checking executive and parliamentary excess.

I am curious to know which controversial aspects of the bill have been left standing.

I will be on it as soon as it is available.

Omollo while at it, what happens when major sections of a bill are struck off? Shouldn't the whole law be thrown out rather than salvage minute sections of it? My concern is that the same persons will sneak back the unconstitutional sections through amendment and tyranny of malice.
