(This message was added in version 6.7.0.) in /home/crossfir/public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6114This follows President William Ruto\u2019s directive last week that\u00a0investigations commence<\/a>\u00a0into incidences whereby police officers have been accused of extra-judicial murder.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n IPOA board member JM Waiganjo on Monday during the press briefing said probing should be left to the oversight authority, arguing that the police service cannot investigate itself. \u201cWhat concerns us mainly is that the Internal Affairs Unit of the National Police Service has taken over the investigations and the police, as you know, cannot effectively investigate themselves,\u201d<\/strong><\/em> Waiganjo said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Waiganjo however added that IPOA should be left with what it does. \u201cWe are asking that this authority (IPOA) be left to carry out its mandate without interference from the National Police Service,\u201d JM said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The authority further raised concerns about how the SSU was dissolved.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n The DCI announced SSU’s dissolution through a statement on October 16, attributing the choice to order from the acting Inspector General of Police Noor Gabow.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n President Ruto later in the day said he had directed the disbandment of the elite squad as part of his plan to address extrajudicial killings in the country. The Head of State said the police unit had become killers<\/a>, instead of protectors of ordinary Kenyans.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n But Mr. Waiganjo on Monday said the disbandment was\u00a0 \u201ca little bit out of procedure\u201d, without giving further details. \u201cThe authority has always sought to know any formation of the National Police Service and who the members of those units are, who they report to and how they are formed. When the disbandment happened, how it was done we thought it was a little bit out of procedure because the members of those units are under investigation. They are Kenyans and they deserve justice,\u201d<\/strong><\/em> he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Waiganjo also noted that IPOA\u2019s efforts in the probe have been met with \u201cserious issues of cooperation\u201d from members of the police.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n John noted in quotes, \u201cWe hardly get cooperation, when we summon we have to insist they come, so those are some of the challenges that we have and we are hoping in this new administration, the cooperation that we have had with the members of the police will be enhanced,\u201d<\/strong><\/em> he said.<\/p>\n
