The Law Society of Kenya has asked the court to deny alleged fake lawyer Brian Mwenda bail and remand him in prison.
LSK President Eric Theuri told court that Mwenda is a flight risk and if released he might abscond the case.
Theuri told Chief Magistrate Lucas Onyina that Mwenda evaded police arrest and availed himself at the DCI at his own convenience.
He played the video clips posted by Mike Sonko on social media showing him with Mwenda assuring the public that he was not under arrest but would present himself to the police station when required.
Theuri said Mwenda looked relaxed in the video drinking Red Bull.
Theuri said the accused was aware that he was being sought by police but chose not to present himself to police.
Mwenda was charged on Wednesday with six counts related to forging a practicing certificate and certificate of admission.
