The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has summoned Kapseret Member of Parliament Oscar Sudi and his Soy counterpart Caleb Kositany and Uasin Gishu County Assembly Speaker David Kiplagat over their alleged involvement in organizing chaos that was witnessed during the burial of Mzee Jackson Kibor.
According to the DCI, the chaos led to the stoning of ODM leader Raila Odinga's chopper.
In a statement, the DCI said preliminary investigations had revealed that the three leaders allegedly organized and coordinated the violence witnessed on Friday.
MPs Sudi, Kositany, and Speaker Kiplagat have subsequently been summoned to appear before the Rift Valley DCI boss on Sunday morning.
“At the closure of the ceremony, chaos erupted and stones including other projectiles were hurled at the former Prime Minister by incited youth, maliciously damaging his helicopter’s windscreen,” read the statement released on Saturday evening.
“In view of the foregoing, the two legislators and County Assembly Speaker have pursuant to Section 52 of the National Police Service Act 2011, been summoned to appear in person before the Rift Valley DCI Regional Coordinator on April 3, 2022, at 9am, for further investigations into their involvement in the incident.”
