[quote=McReggae][quote=hardwood]It was a terrible week for me. Niliwekwa ndani even after taking the akoblow test. The cops said I was over the limit and also they were very furious with me for being kichwa ngumu.
I had initially thought I would sort out things at the station but when we got there, things moved very fast. After recording our names kwa OB (there were about 15 of us), they asked us to surrender our valuables ie cash, wallets and phones which they marked and put in a safe. We were then asked to remove our belts and shoes (one shoe) and these were put in a big carton. Then we were thrown into the cell and the door locked until 6am. No chance even ya kujitetea or call someone.
At 6am in the morning they opened the door to do a roll call and handing over. Then at about 9am they called us one by one and gave us a chance each to make one call using their phone at the station. Now the big problem I had is that among the people who would have bailed me out, the only number I know off-head is my wife's number. So I called her. She had been very worried about my whereabouts and she was happy to learn that I was Ok....but she was furious that "after kutangatanga the whole night taking phombe and getting into trouble", I now wanted her to come and bail me out.
I was bailed out (cash bail 20k) and also paid 5k towing charges. Since I was still locked in the cell she had to sort the matter. Initially I thought that when you are bailed maneno imekwisha, but kumbe you still have to appear in court. I was told they circulate your car reg no and arrest you if you dont appear in court. So I went to court and was fined.
It was my first time in a police cell and it was a horrible experience. I was standing the whole night and until I was bailed out at noon the next day. I was soo tired and my legs are still hurting to this day due to the many hours of standing barefoot on the concrete floor. The worst experience was walking barefoot to the flooded toilet. I am still traumatized and I feel more angrier than miguna. As @angelica said, osicheze na sirkal.

Only one night? Now you should graduate to spending a weekend at Kamukunji police cells
