Nairobi governor Ann Kananu has disclosed that so far 10 employees of Alchemist Bar have been arrested and arraigned.
The entertainment joint, whose closure the governor ordered on Tuesday, has been at the centre of controversy since last weekend over claims of racial discrimination.
“We have an image to protect and the future, I have directed County Executive Committee Member for Environment to institute a multiagency task force and a comprehensive report of the same to be made in the next five days,” Ms Kananu said.
Earlier, the club’s management had distanced itself from the incident despite have issued a public apology on the same.
