Independent Policing Oversight Authority (Ipoa) has responded to criticism by Inspector General of Police Japhet Koome .
The police boss on Friday differed with the Authority over its stand on use of firearms by the Police. Koome, who was speaking at an event to honour officers killed in the line of duty at the Embakasi AP Training College, urged police not to hesitate to use their guns in the event they needed to do so in executing their mandate.
