The DCI added.
When asked about the ordeal, Grace narrated that they arrested her without telling her where they were taking her.
I asked them why they were arresting me and where they were taking me but they refused to tell me. They told me they were not arresting me.
Njoki said.
I was carried away by force out of the hospital where I had gone to receive treatment. I was dragged, pinched and bullied. Although they never told me the reason for the arrest. They insisted that I should write a statement but they had not told me anything. Although through that time I felt threatened I suffered from heart attack.
Njoki added.
