Inspector General Douglas Kanja and DCI boss Amin Mohamed appeared in court for the first time over Mlolongo three abduction case.
This was after they failed to appear in court three times after being ordered by Justice Chacha Mwita.
Despite that, IG Douglas Kanja had promised to appear in court.
The abductees known as Justus Mutumwa, Martin Mwau and Karani Muema were allegedly abducted in their Mlolongo residence and have been missing since December 16th 2024.
The court had ordered Kanja and Amin to produce the missing abductees in court whether dead or alive.
On appearing in court, Inspector Kanja told Justice Chacha Mwita that the report of the missing persons was made at Mlolongo and Athi River police stations.
After the reports were made, he directed the director of DCI to commence probe.
The leading investigator Paul Wachira, who is an assistant IG, is here before the court to give a progress report on the status of the investigations.
Kanja said while he assured that he is a law-abiding citizen who respects courts and orders issued at any given time.
Amin Mohammed on the other hand said that investigations into the missing persons case are still ongoing and at the appropriate time the file will be forwarded to the ODPP complete with their findings and recommendations.
Amin also affirmed the court that the missing persons are not under the custody of the National police service.
We can neither produce their bodies nor can we formally prefer any charges against them because they are not under our custody.
Amin said while at witness stand.
