"content": "(a) On 4th November, 2011, at about 8.45 pm, three police officers, namely, Mohamed Haru, deceased, Personal No.40030, and Joseph Kirimi, Personal No.55516, together with Michael Muthiora, Personal No.89256, were on patrol within Malaba Township. They came across a suspicious person who defied orders to stop for questioning and ran into Mama Kevin Cafe before escaping through the rear door, which was open at that particular time. Coincidentally, the OCS, Malaba Police Station, Chief Inspector Peter Ndung’u, and the OC, Crime, Inspector Alexander Kihara, were taking supper in the cafe. They witnessed the suspect flee through the backdoor. The OCS pursued the suspect, who disappeared into the darkness. The OC, Crime, Inspector Alexander Kihara, went out through the front door to check on who was pursuing the suspect. He met three police officers who were in civilian clothes, and owing to the fact that it was dark and he could not identify them, he pulled out his official pistol and opened fire, fatally injuring Mohamed Haru and seriously injuring Police Constable (PC) Joseph Kirimi. The injured officer identified himself, prompting Inspector Kihara to stop shooting. Mohamed Haru was rushed to Kocholia District Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival, while PC Kirimi was admitted for treatment. (b) Immediately after the incident, Police Case File No.962/200/2011 was opened by the Criminal Investigations Department (CID) and the suspect, Inspector Alexander Kihara, was arrested. He was charged before Busia High Court on 7th November, 2011 with the offence of murder and remanded in prison until 10th November, 2011, when the High Court ordered that a public inquest be held instead. (b) Following the order by the High Court to hold a public inquest, the suspect was released from prison custody to await the outcome of the inquest. Once the inquest is finalised, appropriate action will be taken accordingly."
