A police officer who had previously declared he was worth Sh20 million was put on the spot yesterday for double speak after telling the vetting panel he was broke and lives entirely on loans.

Police Sergeant Japheth Ochoro stationed at the Webuye Weighbridge, said he opted to borrow money from commercial banks and micro-finance entities to avoid indulging in corruption.
