For the past few years, a fissure has emerged between the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), headed by George Kinoti and Noordin Haji, respectively.
The bone of contention has been where the power and decision to prosecute resides and other actions, including publishing guidelines on prosecution and procedures specific to prosecuting terrorism by the ODPP. The DCI claims ODPP did not consult it.
