Gaitho was arrested on Wednesday morning at Karen Police Station.
“We are sorry to Gaitho. It was a case of mistaken identity,” Amin said.

“I’m with my dad @MachariaGaitho. He’s just been brought to Karen police station by the car that abducted him,” Anita Gaitho said in a tweet.
“He’s safe although they roughed him up a bit. We’re making the abduction report right now.”
Gaitho was forcefully arrested at Karen police station.
He was with his son when they were cut off by a Subaru as they left home.
Gaitho then drove off to Karen Police Station where he was forcefully bundled into a car.
In a video seen by Gossipa2z.com, the journalist is shoved into a white Probox inside the station by people in civilian clothes as police looked.
The video was recorded by his son.
