While a battery of lawyers were in Kenya fighting for Miguna Miguna’s return, his Canadian fellows were also burning the midnight oil.

And when he was granted a return to Kenya, Miguna did not forget to thank those who fought for him.
The Canadian law firm as part of its role comes in hand when a lawyer is under threat such the case of Miguna Miguna.
The law firm published their success as below
Justice Chacha Mwita on Monday ruled that should the government fail to issue Miguna with a travel document, then the self-declared NRM general should be at liberty to use his Canadian passport to regain entry into Kenya.
The court also ordered the government to facilitate Miguna’s return to the country on a date and time notified to the respondents by the petitioner.
“During the petitioner’s first re-entry into Kenya, the chairperson of the Kenya National Human Rights Commission be allowed access to the immigration and customs clearance areas at the port of petitioner’s re-entry in order to observe the extent of the respondents observance of the relevant constitutional human rights and immigration laws applicable to the petitioner’s rights to reenter Kenya,” ordered the judge.
Justice Mwita also suspended orders issued by Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i on February 6, 2018 declaring that Miguna was not a Kenyan citizen and that his presence in the country was contrary to national interest.
