Narok Senator Stephen ole Ntutu and four MPs who were earlier arrested over chaotic demonstrations in Narok on Monday have been released on a personal bond of Sh500,000 each.
The five are required to maintain peace as they await the mention of their case on February 13.
Earlier, Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko had urged the court to release them on bond saying he had received information that chaos had erupted in Narok on Thursday morning as residents protested the arrest of the politicians.
During the protests, one person was injured while businesses remained closed as angry youths barricaded roads leading to Narok Town.
Those arrested together with Senator Ntutu were MPs Johana Ngeno (EmurwaDikir), Moitalel Kenta (Narok North), Korei Lemein (Narok South) and Patrick Ntutu (Narok West).
