‘Jicho Pevu’ Journalists Mohammed Ali & John Allan Namu Summoned For Questioning Over the Westgate CCTV Footage

Friday, KTN aired its much hyped investigative pieces ‘Jicho Pevu’ and ‘Inside Story’ by Mohammed Ali and John Allan Namu respectively that revealed to Kenyans that the KDF soldiers manning the mall during the four-day siege looted the shops in the upscale mall.

This morning however, the two investigative journalists were summoned by Criminal Investigative Department (CID) to explain how the soldiers looted as well as how the terrorists escaped as purported by their investigation.

According to word on the street, Moha and Namu were allegedly questioned on how they got access to the clip showing KDF soldiers looting the Nakumatt supermarket, something that has damaged the reputation of the disciplined forces.

There were even speculations that the two had been arrested following the expose but the two journalists have since dispelled the rumour that was quickly spreading on social media.

Moha tweeted, “We are safe” while Namu insisted that they have not been arrested.

We are safe.
