On Thursday, February 9, the National Police Service (NPS) opened an inquiry into the alleged home invasion of former Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiangi.
In what the Azimio La Umoja Coalition referred to as a “witch hunt” against the former Cabinet Secretary, the police allegedly started recording testimonies and evaluating the material under the direction of Langata Officer Commanding Police Division (OCPD) Monica Kimani and DCIO.
The officers were trying to identify those who participated in the attack and learn more about the individuals who searched the house during their investigations.
The Criminal Investigations Department (DCI) investigators aiming to gather evidence, some of which included Close Circuit Television (CCTV) video clips that would be examined by professionals.
Transporting the piece of evidence from Karen to the Criminal Investigations Department’s main office will allow cyber crime experts to conduct an investigation and produce a report on the matter.
The Criminal Investigations Department (DCI) detectives were simultaneously trying to get statements from every witness who had been at Dr. Matiangi’s house that tragic night.
The investigation came just hours after Police boss Japhet Koome refuted reports claiming that cops were sent to arrest Matiang’i on Wednesday night, February 8.
“I wish to clarify that no police officer under the NPS was sent to former CS Matiang’i residence at all,” the police chief explained.
