In the ruling made on Tuesday, February 16, the court directed that the former governor will only face the terror charges labelled against him after he has been discharged from the hospital.
The judge further noted that the governor should be confined in his hospital bed until his health improves.
Sonko was admitted on the morning of Tuesday, February 9, prior to his arraignment at Kiambu Law Courts, where he was expected to answer to assault and robbery with violence charges.
Sources, at the time, claimed that the former Makadara MP had developed stomach complications.
