The said BAHATI was arrested this Morning at his home in JOKAKIS APARTMENT LIMURU ROAD in RUAKA..” Wrote Thuranira Kathiai in part.
A call from ‘above’
Kathiai says that the investigating officer received a call from their superior to release Bahati. Apparently Bahati is colluding with senior police officers to block justice.
“On the arrival at Police the Investigating Officer IO received a call from his boss OCPD Karuri Police Station to release him BAHATI with immediate effect insisting an ORDER from the County Commander..he was released and it was booked his release OB10/28/10/2017…he was instructed to come back tomorrow on Sunday at Karuri Police at 2:00pm,” wrote Thuranira Kathiai.
The plaintiff further explains that he reported the matter to the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) after he was denied justice by the police.
“Since that he using Senior Officer’s in the Government to block Justice..I want to State it clear that BAHATI should know he is not above the law and no one is above the law.
Have instructed my lawyer to address the Matter through IPOA and to the intelligence that somebody somewhere is blocking his Juniors to carry out investigations independently..I can tell BAHATI he has not escaped the law,he has Just postponed the Arrest..the full hand of the law will deal with him and all those Seniors very Soon.!!
This is a CRIMINAL Case and INVESTIGATIONS should be concluded as soon as possible.!!!”
