    "content": "The police are aware that some people have, in the recent past, been posing as police officers and ambushing innocent citizens as they come from banks or ATM outlets after withdrawing some money. However, the syndicate has been broken and the situation contained after intelligence-led police investigations led to eventual arrest of the suspects. On 15th May, 2009, a gang of four dangerous criminals were arrested along Processional Way having committed a similar robbery in the City. They were found with full police uniform, a pair of handcuffs and several mobile phones among other items. The four were identified as Stephen Muoki Musyoki, Samwel Kuria Irungu, David Mucheki Kigue and Lazarus Kangethe Njoroge. The four appeared in court on 25th May, 2009, and charged with impersonating police officers and robbing their victims. They were remanded in custody until 29th July, 2009. I am not aware that police officers are arresting people arbitrarily. We need specific incidences to support the allegations and I will address them accordingly. The Police Force has laid down proper mechanism to deal with complaints"
