Justice Mugambi criticized Masengeli’s behavior as unacceptable and a challenge to the rule of law. The Law Society of Kenya condemned Masengeli’s actions and criticized the court for delays in holding him accountable. Masengeli did not adhere to court orders to explain the disappearance of individuals. This led to his conviction for contempt of court.

The judiciary’s commitment to holding individuals accountable for contempt of court is crucial. This commitment reinforces the principles of justice.

It also upholds the rule of law in the legal system. Masengeli’s case reflects the broader significance of judicial integrity and the consequences of failing to obey legal obligations.
