High Court judge Luka Kimaru has ordered the Director of Immigration Gordon Kihalagwa to swear and file affidavits explaining
circumstances under which Miguna Miguna was deported on Tuesday night
The judge said the the senior government officer should explain how he took custody of Miguna when he knew very well that there were clear instructions requiring the lawyer to be produced in court.
The judge also ordered the IG and DCI to swear affidavits and also personally appear in court on February 14 to showcause why they should not be punished for disobeying
the court.
Kimaru issued the orders during a hearing of the case where police were directed to personally present the self-proclaimed NRM general.
The government confirmed kicking Miguna out of the country, a decision which was taken days after he was arrested over the oathing of NASA leader Raila Odinga.
Authorities used his Canadian
citizenship to force him to fly to Canada just hours after the court ruled that police release him immediately.
While the state claims that Miguna never reapplied for his Kenyan citizenship, questions have arisen on how he contested for elections without it.

Miguna's troubles began when he stamped documents used for Raila's self-inauguration as the people's president at Uhuru Park on January 30.
He was there with leaders including Ruaraka MP TJ Kajwang, who administered the oath, and Siaya senator and lawyer James Orengo, who has represented many of the coalition's politicians in legal matters.
