A pilot who was charged for mistreating a female police officer when he had flown Deputy President William Ruto is reportedly back to work.Alistair Patrick Llewelyn was spotted in photos posted by lawyer Donald B Kipkorir who claimed that the pilot had flown him to an event in Naivasha and captioned it: “My pilot, Alistair”.
The photographs show Alistair posing with the lawyer beside a helicopter bearing the same registration number (5Y-DSN) as the one used by Ruto.In a different caption, the pilot is inside the chopper and appears to be in control despite a statement that announced his sacking and his subsequent prosecution.
This elicited mixed reactions with most of Kipkorir’s followers condemning Alistair, prompting the city lawyer to respond with: “Alistair is an excellent pilot and no rogue. Don’t always believe what the media says.”
The pilot came to the limelight in February when he was filmed assaulting an officer on duty in Nyandarua, in a video that went viral on social media with many demanding for his deportation.
Alistair was arrested and charged with causing disturbance and assault, after which he was freed on a bond of Sh750,000 or a Sh250,000 cash bail and ordered to submit his citizenship, passport and travel documents before his release could be effected.
