Former Journalist Joshua Sang Confined At The Hague

Late last week as Deputy President William Ruto and a group of MPs who had accompanied him made their way back home after his trial was adjourned, his co-accused and former radio journalist, Joshua Sang could not board the plane back to Kenya.

Apparently, the petite radio journalist lacked cash to pay for his flight back into the country. And that’s not all; Sang’s visa confines him at The Hague. He cannot move to other cities as he’s required to stay within the vicinity of the International Criminal Court.

Speaking to KTN from his flat in an isolated part of Hague, Sang said,

“Ingekua ata imeharishwa na hio Visa inaniruhusu kutembea Holland yote ingekua ni vyema kwa mimi ni mtu napenda ng’ombe sana. Ningekua nimeenda kuona vile wanafuga ng’ombe wao.”

He says he greatly misses his children as he’s used to being around them.

For now, Sang has to contend with keeping in touch with family and friends through the social networking site, Facebook, the closest he will get to them for now.

To beat the boredom, Sang says he will be going through witness statements as he awaits the recommencement of the trial this week.
