Police have been ordered to arrest Eldoret-based Lawyer Simon Lilan and his brother John Tallam. The two will be charged in court for giving false information to the police and causing unnecessary public panic.
Uasin Gishu Police Commandant, Samson Ole Kinne on Saturday said the two would be arraigned in court as soon as investigations are over. Lilan, who went missing on January 9 resurfaced on Friday evening at the Law Society of Kenya (LSK) offices in Nairobi and said he had been hiding in a city apartment. Two weeks ago, the lawyer went to court and sought to halt the burial of politician Mark Too until the police unearth the cause of the former nominated MP’s death.
