Mbogo was charged with the offense in 2009 at the Kibera Law courts and the matter ended up at the High Court, where he was cleared of all charges.
The business man wants the media barred from airing the story because it will might cause him untold suffering and prejudice.
“If that story is allowed to run, it will cause me untold suffering and prejudice since the general voting public will get the same through the media complex network that I cannot match in correcting the impression it will have caused,” Steve Mbogo was quoted saying.
If the courts do not come to his rescue, Mbogo might be left politically incapacitated hence benefiting his opponents in the race for the Starehe seat.
