    "content": "while the wife suffered severe head injuries. The victims were rushed to ACK Mount Kenya Hospital, where they were admitted and are in fair condition. Upon visiting the crime scene, the officers from the said police station recovered one spent cartridge and two live rounds of ammunition. The incident was also booked in Karaini Police Station via OB No. 100301 of 2025, and the investigation commenced immediately under Case File No. 2213025. The spent cartridge recovered from the scene was taken to the ballistic examiner at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) headquarters for analysis. The findings confirmed that the firearm used in this incident was also linked to a previous shooting in Ruiru Sub-County, which also had a reported case No. 311002 of 24 at Gatonga Police Station. The case, by the time of writing the report, was under active investigation. Unfortunately, no arrest has been made so far. On the last one, Ms Gladys Nyambura closed her M-Pesa shop on 24th at approximately 9.30 p.m. She operates it in Kirinyaga Town. She boarded a bodaboda ridden by Mr Eric Maina to take her home. Before reaching her destination, they were intercepted by assailants using two numberless motorbikes, each carrying a pillion passenger armed with a pistol. The criminals immediately confronted the complainant, brandishing the pistols and forcibly snatching her handbag while demanding money. Upon hearing the distress call, a local resident, Mr Kamau, aged 44 years, responded in an attempt to assist. Unfortunately, one of the robbers shot him. They also fired two shots into the air to disperse the bystanders before fleeing the scene on their motorcycles. The police officers arrived promptly, but the criminals had already escaped. On the scene, the police recovered two spent cartridges and five rounds of ammunition. The injured victim was rushed to Kirinyaga County Referral Hospital for treatment. However, he tragically succumbed to his injuries the following day. The post-mortem examination confirmed that he had suffered a vital gunshot wound on the abdomen. Investigations commenced under the offence of robbery with violence contrary to Section 296(2) of the Penal Code, referred under Case File No. CR22118 of 2025. The forensic analysis done at the DCI headquarters by the ballistic examinations on the two spent cartridges recovered at the scene established that the firearm used in this incident had also been linked to a separate robbery with violence case No. DCI in Ruiru again, under OB No. 31100224. This means these are notorious criminals. The suspects remain at large now, and the case is still under active investigation to apprehend those responsible. I confirm to this House that when Governor Sakaja dumped garbage at Kenya Power headquarters, we invited him and the Inspector-General of Police. We listed this agenda as Any other Business (AoB) to the Inspector-General of Police. The Member of Parliament had ample time to question him. Some of the interventions were to transfer some of the rogue officers. It was confirmed that they were transferred. However, we are a little bit concerned because no suspect has been apprehended."
