written by Mustafa Juma

Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti has flown to the United States to get a three-week FBI training.

Kinoti flew to the US last week to attend the Federal Bureau Investigations (FBI) executive training.

The training will go down at at the National Executive Institute.


He is the only detective from Africa considered for the high level training with the other four attendees drawn from Canada and Australia.

At least 15 top FBI officials will take the participants through strategic leadership development and current affairs during the three-week training.

The attendees – according to NEI’s website – must be heads of departments with more than 500 sworn officers serving a population of at least 250,000.

The first two weeks of the training will be held in Washington before the attendees are taken to Glasgow for the final bit of the course.

“NEI consists of three one-week training sessions throughout the year. Two of the sessions are hosted by the FBI Academy; the third is typically conducted overseas in concert with our global partners,” NEI’s website states.

“One of the most valuable aspects of NEI is the range and diversity of the executives, who bring immensely different levels of experience and perspectives.”

NEI has provided leadership development for bureau executives and for the heads of the largest law enforcement agencies in the United States and overseas.

Since 1976, more than 1,000 law enforcement executives have graduated from the institute.

Upon graduation, each executive is invited to join the NEI Associates (NEIA), a non-profit foundation that continues the education of these executives and sponsors various research projects.

Deputy President Dr William Ruto has hit back at DCI boss George Kinoti over the murder of his Harambee Annex office guard, sergent Kipyegon Kenei.

Kenei, the policeman who was on duty when ex-Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa and his fake arms dealers held an illegal meeting at the DP’s office, was killed by powerful individuals.

DCI Kinoti on Thursday played Harambee Annex CCTV footages to the media, noting that Kenei was murdered, and his killers stage managed the scene to look like a suicide.

“We have identified the persons of interest and that will be the focus of our investigation going forward,” he told journalists moments after he addressed a lengthy press conference where he played CCTV footage showing Kenei’s last moments.

However, DP Ruto while hitting back at Kinoti said that the truth must be found on why, how and who killed sergent Kenei.

Ruto says Kenei’s family, his office and Kenyans want the truth and justice, and that culprits held to account.

According to the second in command, the drama, distortions, convenient half-truths and the smear campaigns in sponsored headlines amounts to criminal cover up.

“The truth MUST be found on WHY, HOW,and WHO killed Sgt kenei. The family, ODP,and kenyans want the TRUTH & JUSTICE and culprits held to account. The drama, distortions, convenient half-truths and the smear campaigns in sponsored headlines amounts to criminal cover up,” Ruto tweeted.

According to the investigators, Kenei had nothing to fear and was ready to spill the beans about what he knew regarding the fake arms deal that threw the DP’s office into the limelight.

Evidence gathered by the homicide detectives show Kenei’s house revealed a scenario of a gruesome murder stage-managed to look like a suicide.

How Death of DP Ruto’s Guard Was Stage-managed to Look Like Suicide, DCI Kinoti Spills The Beans

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Sergent Kipyegon Kenei, an officer who was on duty at Deputy President William Ruto’s office at the time ex-Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa held an illegal meeting at the Harambee Annex office, was murdered in cold blood, DCI George Kinoti has revealed.

According to CCTV footages played before media cameras on Thursday afternoon at DCI headquarters, Sergent Kenei was murdered, with his killers stage managing the incident to make it look like suicide.

Reports have described Kenei as a key witness in the ongoing Sh39 billion fake arms deal investigation involving Echesa and three others.

Sergent Kenei was found dead on February 20 at his house in Villa Franca Estate in Imara Daima.

A post-mortem carried out on his body on February 26 revealed that he died from a single gunshot wound.

Kenei was killed by a bullet that was fired from a pistol held to his chin.

DCI Kinoti has revealed that the impact of the single gunshot to his head could have sent him falling on the bed, instead, he was found on the floor.

Further CCTV footage shows Ex-Sports CS Rashid Echesa and other suspects were in DP Ruto’s Harambee Annex office for 1hr 22mins and not 23 mins, DCI boss Kinoti says.

Additionally, evidence has shown that the suicide note collected from his house on the day he was murdered did not bear his handwriting.

“Everything was well planned to appear like a suicide. Sending money to his family, leaving behind a suicide note and so forth but it’s a clear case of murder,” a detective privy to the ongoing investigations told the Nation.

The preliminary probe shows Kenei’s murder was planned for a long time.

Kinoti further noted that the policeman wanted to record a statement on the fake arms deal.

by Pauline Waswa
written by Pauline Waswa

Judicial Service Commission (JSC) members led by the presiding judge in Machakos high court George Odunga, on Wednesday March 4, 2020, engaged members of the public at Bungoma law courts, to sensitize on the matter of protection against domestic violence rules.

Domestic violence may result from abuse ranging from physical, economic and emotional, verbal or psychological abuse.

Judge Odunga noted that the present legislation does not provide for the protection before the offence is committed but the act now provides for the people to come to court for protection orders so that it can’t be waited until the act of violence is completed.

With the issue of domestic violence being rampant in most parts in the country, the discussion comes in to create a better platform where the victims can seek justice easily.

Judge Odunga issued out outlines on how the cases shall be handled.

He stated that such issues are supposed to be handled at the residents magistrates court and so people are advised whenever they need  the services to report the matter to the police who will assist them to fill out a prescribed form 1 titled ‘information on domestic violence’.

The police will further be required to hand in the filled prescribed form to court within 24hours.

The victim can further apply for a protection order  which is a court order in domestic violence case whose purpose is to safeguard or protect the victim once a case has been reported.

The protection order may consist in a prohibition, restraint, residence, custody, compensation or restitution.

A party dissatisfied by a protection order may apply to court for its variation or discharge.

Judge Odunga also advocated for settling of domestic matters at home noting that family matters involves children and it would be so important for reconciliation to be encouraged and for them to live harmoniously.

‘Our intention is not to break families but to ensure that families live in peace. It’s only that sometimes we have to issue protection orders while we are still determining the matters otherwise the act provides that where appropriate alternative dispute resolution mechanism like mediation has to be respected,” he said.

Echesa Breaks Silence Following Car Drama at His Karen Home

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Former Sports Cabinet Secretary (CS) Rashid Echesa has finally broken silence following a car drama at his Karen home.

Monday morning, DCI sleuths were forced to jump over the gate into his compound and arrested him over fraudulent accusation of three motors belonging to Esther Kabura.

In his response, the Former CS produced a letter stating how the Directorate of Criminal Investigations vindicated him from an alleged fraudulent accusation of three motors.

Echesa claims that the DCI act of arresting him and taking his vehicles was malicious.

“AMBIGUOUS! It’s amazing that the @DCI_Kenya works in a cryptic and abstruse way! Why are they acting as if they never served me with this letter dated 5th February 2018!” tweeted Echesa.

In the letter shared by Echesa, a complaint was made on January 23rd 2017 by Kabura who claimed that the Former CS, who was a friend to her late husband, took three vehicles belonging to her late husband immediately after his death for safe custody but failed to return them.

The three vehicles were listed as KBZ 009 J Toyota Land Cruiser V8, KBN 242 W Toyota Mark X and KAY 388 A Volkswagen Passat.

The DCI Kenya further established that Echesa was given the vehicles for safe custody after the complainant, Kabura, was embroiled in an inheritance dispute with the relatives of her late husband who are accused to have plotted to take over the properties.

The letter further vindicates Echesa from the claim of fraudulent accusation with the DCI stating that the complainant had requested the Former CS to dispose of the vehicle for her due to her financial constraints.

“It was established that indeed the said motor vehicles were given to Rashid Mohamed following a disagreement between the complainant and the family of her late husband who wanted to deprive her of their properties which included the motor vehicles.

“Later the complainant approached Rashid requesting him to assist her in disposing of the motor vehicles as she was undergoing serious financial problems.

“Upon completion of the investigations, it was established that the motor vehicles in question were sold by the complainant a fact that was supported by the production of a signed agreement and cash deposits into her account,” reads in part the letter from the DCI dated February 5th 2018.

According to the alleged DCI’s letter: “Due to the aforesaid, the matter was closed as no further police action was required after both parties were summoned and were advised accordingly.”

Suspended KQ Employee Who Blew The Whistle About China Plane Claims Life in Danger

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

The suspended whistle blower of the China Southern plane that landed at JKIA on Wednesday morning is living in fear after he apparently received word that he might be getting followed.

Gire Ali, who was suspended by Kenya Airways on February 27, 2020 after being accused of participating in recording and sharing of the video, showing 239 passengers aboard the China plane being ushered in, says his life is now in danger.

“They have been calling and I’m yet to go and meet the team because someone warned me that my life might be in danger and that they were watching me. I handed over my work identification documents through the fence and left. I fear about what could happen to me,” Gire is quoted by a local daily.

He also intimated that the employees had earlier on in the month asked for protective gear but never heard from management.

“We’re required to maintain security presence on this flight as long as it is on the ground. Our staff are badly exposed since we do not have protective gear while discharging our duties. We kindly request that similar masks be provided to our staff working on this flight,” a letter dated February 2 read in part.

So far, China Southern Airlines has suspended flights to Kenya.

A high court also ordered that the 239 passengers be quarantined at a Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) facility.

In Africa, three coronavirus cases have been confirmed. They are in Nigeria, Algeria and Egypt.

While being relieved of duties, Gire was accused of going against company policy and exposing poor management of passengers coming from the Coronavirus infested nation.

“It has been determined that you be suspended from duty with effect from 27th February 2020 in accordance with provision of clause 16.5 of the Company HR Policy,” a letter signed by chief human resources officer Evelyne Munyoki read in part.

KQ’s actions angered netizens who thought Gire’s actions were heroic.

Uproar as Chinese Allegedly Grab Part of University of Nairobi (Watch Video)

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

A video doing rounds on social media showing University of Nairobi students and a lecturer protesting being locked out of lecturer room at the university’s premises has caused an uproar.

In the video, a seemingly angry lecturer who has been identified as Dr Richard Bosire stated that they had been barred from accessing a room at the University of Nairobi Towers by Chinese students.

“What we are protesting is the Chinese locking students out of the facility with their lecturer. We cannot allow it!” Bosire lamented.

The entrance to the room from which the video of the protest was recorded from shows Chinese writings and decor on the walls.

“The Chinese claim they bought two floors in this tower. The university has given them land, they constructed Confucius Institute headquarters along Arboretum Road, which is a huge facility, perhaps on two acres of land, yet they are closing us out,” Bosire alleged.

“Where do they want us to go? Do they want us to learn under trees? Is it Chinese colonialism? They have gone too far.

“The Indians built Gandhi wing, donated it to the university in the early 70s, Unesco built Education building gave it to the university, many institutions donate to this university but the Chinese have come to grab this University. It is not right!” He lamented.

The move has seen netizens angrily react, expressing their disappointment in the University leadership.

However, the University of Nairobi through the director of corporate affairs has refuted the allegations that the building had two of its floors acquired by China, terming Bosire’s sentiments as personal and ill-motived.

“The Confucius Institute at the University of Nairobi is not a property of the People’s Republic of China. The attached video by Dr. Bosire is misleading and ill-intentioned,” the statement by the director of corporate affairs read in part.

“His sentiments are personal and do not reflect the correct position,” it adds further stating that the students had been assigned a different lecture hall.

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has spoken after an Administrative Police attached to his Harambee Annex office was on Thursday February 20, 2020 found dead in his house in Imara Daima, Nairobi.

The police officer identified as Sergent Kipyegon Kenei, was on duty at the DP’s office the day former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa and two foreigners entered the Harambee Annex office to strike a Ksh 39 billion fake firearms deal.

DP Ruto through a tweet remarked that the death of the man was a huge loss.

He further noted that he knew Kenei on a professional level and was shocked by the turn of events.

The second in command called for the DCI to look into the matter to find justice for the slain officer.

“Deeply saddened by the death of Police Sergent Kipyegon Kenei who worked in my Harambee House Annex Office. Kenei was a disciplined young police officer. I urge the relevant authorities to conduct a thorough investigation to ascertain the circumstances surrounding his death,” read the tweet.

The demise of the officer came after a manhunt had been launched by the DCI Kinoti led team.

The body of the deceased was found at his house in Imara Daima.

Police reports pointed out that the man committed suicide after he shot himself.

On Wednesday, DP Ruto had written to Inspector General of Police Hillary Mutyambai over his safety.

According to Ruto, the breach of security at his office by Echesa and his men together with the foreigners, had put his life in danger.

The DP had also argued that Interior CS Fred Matiang’i should make investigations into the two foreigners.

Through his Chief of Staff, Ken Osinde, the DP wanted the visa issued to the Europeans reviewed.

It is reported that Matiang’i and the Head of Immigrations Service Alex Muteshi did not respond to the incident.

In addition, Ruto wanted the alleged outsiders to be detained until the case is determined by the relevant authorities.

Magistrate in Babu Owino’s Attempted Murder Case Quits

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Magistrate that granted Embakasi East MP Babu Owino controversial bail terms has quit the lawmaker’s attempted murder case.

Chief Magistrate Francis Andayi has decided to withdraw himself from the case as state seeks to have the bail terms reviewed.

His withdrawal comes after eyebrows were raised following the bail terms that were granted to the youthful MP at the time of his release.

The Director of Public Prosecutions had faulted bail terms issued by a magistrate’s court in freeing the youthful lawmaker.

DPP Noordin Haji said he was taken aback by the court’s decision to release the legislator on what he termed as “free bond” and now wants the High Court to call the file from the trial magistrate, with a view of examining the circumstances, legality, and propriety of the orders issued on January 27.

The MP who is charged with attempting to murder Felix Odhiambo Orinda (DJ Evolve) was released on a Sh10 million cash bail to be paid in installments and channeled towards the victim’s hospital bill.

Magistrate Francis Andayi had ruled that the MP shall meet the initial medical expenses of the victim and to this end up to the value of Sh10 million, an amount he said was equivalent to the value of cash bail the court had set for him.

On the other hand, Babu had also filed an application seeking a review of his bail terms on the grounds that he would struggle to pay the remaining installments despite having complied with the court order.

by Mustafa Juma
written by Mustafa Juma

Deputy President William Ruto has finally come out clean fake military arms tender that was allegedly procured from his Harambee Annex office.

In a statement issued on Monday evening by his communication office, DP Ruto distanced himself from the scandal in which former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Eachesa is largely involved.

Ruto says he was not in the office when Echesa and two other foreigners visited his office.

The DP has also stated that Echesa lacked an appointment with him on the material day when they visited his office to ‘seal the deal.’

When Echesa and company got wind that DP Ruto was working from his Karen home instead of Harambee Annex, they bolted out of the reception according to DP’s statement.

The group had been holed up inside the Annex office between 9:39 and 10:02, making it a total of 23 minutes.

Echesa has since been released on a Ksh1 million bail together with Clifford Okoth Onyango, Daniel Otieno Omondi and Kennedy Oyoo Mboya.

DP Ruto said his office has been cooperating with detectives drawn from Directorate of Criminal Investigations and that all the CCTV footages had been made available for review.

On February 15, DCI detectives raided the houses of Echesa where they recovered two guns and more than a hundred rounds of ammunition.
