I would like to respond as follows to the Question raised by the Member for Kerugoya Central regarding the suspect, Laban Rukenya Munene: Yes, the four entries to the OB at Kagumo Police Post and Kabonde Police Post relate to one person, namely, Laban Rukenya Munene. This suspect of crime is awaiting prosecution before the Baricho Law Courts. He is accused of stealing on various dates. He stole from a victim called Mary Karuana Gachoki twice. On a third occasion, the same Rukenya Munene stole from a Mr. John Rukenya. On another occasion, he stole from a Miss Jemimah Wangeci. The suspect was arrested on 3rd April 2022 and arraigned before the Baricho Law Courts under Criminal Case No.356/2022. However, the suspect was released by courts on bail. The suspect subsequently jumped bail and he is on the run. The Government, prosecution and security agencies have no control over who the court gives bail or not. The prosecution tried to oppose the granting of bail, but the court ruled against the prosecution. The bail was granted. When the suspect was admitted to bail, he jumped bail and is now on the run.
