Speaking during #engagetheIG on Monday, Mutyambai said the suspension is to pave way for investigation.

“I assure you that justice for the Kianjokoma brothers will be served, but this can only be done if we allow the proper due process to take place with concrete evidence that can stand a trial in the court of justice,” Mutyambai said.

The IG further sent his condolences to the family adding that IPOA has concluded investigations on the matter.

IPOA has since forwarded the file to the DPP for action.

Mutyambai added that the office of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations is fully involved in the matter, adding that it is a multi-agency team effort to ensure justice is served.

Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i had earlier pledged justice for the two when he met with their father.
