The Director DCI has sanctioned far reaching reforms in the Land Fraud Investigations Unit. In part of the changes made made yesterday, a total of 26 detectives with professional background in land survey, land economics, land physical planning and administration among other
relevant fields have been deployed in the unit. This move is meant to inject new blood and professionalize the unit, to undertake investigations of land cases that are complex in nature. The detectives who were carefully selected & vetted, posses the requisite skills relevant to
the investigation of frauds related to land. They will enhance the unit’s capacity to investigate land cases expeditiously & advise on the appropriate legal action to be taken. These reforms have been made ahead of the roll out of the new lands digital migration program,
in conformity with the lands Registration Act, 2012. #FichuaKwaDCI Usiogope! Dial 0800 722 203
