Arrest of vagabonds, habitual robbers, etc. An officer in charge of a police station may in the same manner arrest or cause to be arrested— (a) any person found taking precautions to conceal his presence within the limits of the station under circumstances which afford reason to believe that he is taking those precautions with a view to committing a cognizable offence; (b) Repealed by Act No. 5 of 2003, s.61; (c) Repealed by Act No. 5 of 2003, s.61. [Act No. 5 of 2003, s. 61.] 31. Procedure when police officer deputes subordinate to arrest without warrant When an officer in charge of a police station requires an officer subordinate to him to arrest without a warrant (otherwise than in his presence) any person who may lawfully be arrested without a warrant under section 30, he shall deliver to the officer required to make the arrest an order in writing specifying the person to be arrested and the offence or other cause for which the arrest is to be made. 32. Refusal to give name and residence (1) When a person who in the presence of a police officer has committed or has been accused of committing a non-cognizable offence refuses on the demand of the officer to give his name and residence, or gives a name or residence which the officer has reason to believe to be false, he may be arrested by the officer in order that his name or residence may be ascertained. (2) When the true name and residence of the person have been ascertained he shall be released on his executing a bond, with or without sureties, to appear before a magistrate if so required: Provided that if the person is not resident in Kenya the bond shall be secured by a surety or sureties resident in Kenya. (3) Should the true name and residence of the person not be ascertained within twenty-four hours from the time of arrest, or should he fail to execute the bond, or, if so required, to furnish sufficient sureties, he shall forthwith be taken before the nearest magistrate having jurisdiction. 33. Disposal of persons arrested by police officer A police officer making an arrest without a warrant shall, without unnecessary delay and subject to the provisions of this Code as to bail, take or send the person arrested before a magistrate having jurisdiction in the case or before an officer in charge of a police station. 34.
