Detectives based at Central Police Station, are holding three errant law enforcement officers, who were arrested yesterday while conducting unwarranted arrests.The three suspects Police Corporal Cliff Ombati, KDF Lance Corporal Ben Shiundu and Prison Warder
Eugine Shivachi made a mockery of the multi-agency spirit in fighting crime, by uniting to commit crime instead of complimenting each other’s efforts in guaranteeing the public safety and security of Kenyans.
Shiundu from 15 Kenya Army in Mariakani and Shivachi stationed at Wajir GK Prison, joined their Nairobi based partner in crime Cpl Ombati stationed at Uhuru Camp and assigned themselves duties in the heart of Nairobi’s central business district.
They embarked on effecting illegal arrest of boda boda riders on trumped-up charges and demanding bribes from them. The three flagged down one Cyrus Mwangi, a boda boda rider along City Hall way and took possession of his motorbike.
It is after they started harassing the rider demanding for a Sh4,000 bribe to release the bike, that a curious onlooker alerted uniformed Police officers on patrol. The two officers Reagan Akiko and Shukri Abdi, responded swiftly
but were met by a hail of kicks and blows from the officers of the law turned criminals. It took the combined efforts of the officers on patrol and members of the public, to subdue the three miscreants who had left their places of duty hundreds of kilometers away,
to reap from the sweat of hardworking Kenyans. While the two diligent officers sustained serious injuries from the ordeal, they managed to recover two handcuffs from the suspects. Lance Corporal Shiundu has since been handed over to military Police for further action
in accordance with military doctrines, while the remaining two suspects from APS and Prison services are in custody pending their arraignment in court tomorrow, to answer to charges of demanding by menace, impersonation and being in possession of government stores.
