National Assembly Speaker Moses Wetang'ula has directed the Administration and Internal Security Committee to look into the matter of Juja Member of Parliament George Koimburi and present a comprehensive report to the House.
The Committee is chaired by Narok West MP Gabriel Tongoyo. "I have instructed the internal security chair to liaise with the Inspector General and other security agencies, including the Cabinet Secretary for Interior, to obtain a preliminary report that can be tabled before the House," said Wetang'ula.
Earlier, while presenting a preliminary report to the committee Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja said officers in Juja visited the location where the MP was reportedly found and documented the scene. "Upon comparing the vegetation and road dimensions at the scene with those in the video, it was established that the two did not match," Kanja told the committee. He added that during questioning, Moses Kariuki, the caretaker of the coffee farm-owned by businessman Jimmy Wanjigi-where the MP was allegedly found, claimed he had not witnessed any such incident.
Kanja said the officers subsequently visited Plainview Hospital in Ruiru, where the MP had reportedly been taken for treatment. "They confirmed that the vehicle used to transport him, registration number KCJ 660P, belongs to Koimburi and was driven by Frida Njeri, who was also the first responder at the alleged crime scene," he noted.
