We welcome you to learn and engage with us on this topic. #Uadilifu#Integrity

@EACCKenya

On contrary, the IO in his testimony on 10/2/2020 during cross examination by defence confirmed @EACCKenya was involved & that more officers from the Forensic Department were deployed from @EACCKenya Headquarters to boost Wajir team in investigations.

The IO testified that investigations revealed the accused persons conived to withdraw the said monies by 5 cheques at KCB, Wajir branch between 2nd & 9th October, 2018.

The IO to continue to testify on 14/2/2020.
