Solai
dam has started developing fault lines, draining the man made dam and
destroying houses.
In
May 2018 the dam burst its banks after heavy rain killing dozens, destroying
homes and property as investigation report showed the dam was constructed by
unqualified staff and that it had breached environmental laws.
On
Monday 3rd Naivasha Chief Magistrate Kennedy Bilali set suspects in
the Solai dam tragedy free citing ‘little progress’ with the case. He accused
the prosecutors of failing to attend court sessions, urging the Director of
Public Prosecution to appeal the ruling.
Those
charged included the dam owner and other several government officials.
The
new development at the dam brings a state of confusion as the victims are still
waiting for possible compensation following the tragedy.
Residents are now worried as the fault lines
developing could be the first steps of a
tragedy like the one witnessed 18 months ago.
