KWS officers conduct to be investigated over extra judicial killings of suspected poachers
Director of Public Prosecutions Noordin Haji have been petitioned by Members of Parliament from Isiolo County to examine the conduct of Kenya Wildlife Service (KWS) officers over alleged disappearance of suspected poachers.
Isiolo Senator Fatuma Dullo, County Woman Representative Rehema Jaldesa and Isiolo North MP Abdi Koropu lamented that families whose loved ones went missing under undistinguishable circumstances some years back were yet to get justice despite the cases being reported to the police.
Jaldesa said any suspected poacher should be arrested and sued as provided for under the law.
Senator Dullo cited a March 21, 2015 happening in which a young man was shot dead and 10 others left nursing gunshot injuries.
She added that they want KWS intelligence arm, which performs these killings, to be investigated.
