Elgeyo Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen on Thursday told
DCI boss George Kinoti to ‘stop the drama’ and give concrete answers regarding
who killed Sergeant Kipyegon Kenei.
Through a series of hard-hitting tweets, the Senate Majority
leader put the DCI on the spot over the CCTV footage that implicated former
Sports CS Rashid Echesa in the fire arms scandal.
Murkomen poked holes into the footage that was shared saying
it showed nothing that added value towards finding Kenei’s killers.
“DCI spent the afternoon discussing Harambee Annex and shared nothing concerning the scene where Kenei was killed? Where are the pictures of the scene taken by DCI officers?

“Why was the body moved by DCI officers and later returned
to the house? Mr.DCI stop the drama and tell us who killed Kenei,” probed
Murkomen.
The senator demanded openness in the investigations and
accused the DCI of cover-up.
Further, he asked Kinoti to reveal the identities of the two
foreigners who were seen with Echesa in the footage, asking why they are yet to
be arrested.
“We want justice for Kenei. We want the truth. DCI must stop
coverup. Who are the 2 foreigners that accompanied Echesa?
“Are they mercenaries for hire? What is their mission in Kenya & DP office? Why aren’t they arrested? Who was communicating with Kenei (Safaricom data must be there)” he asked.
Adding: Kenyans want to know the truth.
Kenei was found murdered at his house in Imara Daima estate on
February 19, 2020, and despite earlier reports that he committed suicide,
Kinoti confidently stated that it was homicide due to various inconsistencies
at the scene of crime.
