Ruto is currently in The Hague where he is defending himself against charges of masterminding some of the 2007-08 post-election violence that left over 1,000 people dead and several hundred thousand displaced.
“In view of the seriousness of the situation and the fact that it is ongoing, the defence respectfully prays that a decision is rendered on this request today on an expedited and urgent basis,” the request said.
“Mr Ruto… is required to return to Kenya to discharge his ordinary constitutional duties which include participating in security briefings and consultations and involvement in other on¬going and very sensitive national security investigations,” it added.
In addition, the lawyer says he will be required to deal with the aftermath of such a traumatic and tragic event for Kenya including attending funerals and other affairs of state.
Ruto, 46, and his co-accused, Kenyan radio boss Joshua Arap Sang, 38, stand accused of stoking the worst violence in the east African country since independence in 1963.
President Uhuru Kenyatta is also charged with crimes against humanity, and his trial is due to start in November.
