The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has dismissed reports that its detectives raided the home of Nairobi Regional Traffic Commandant Joseph Chirchir and recovered millions of shillings.
In a statement, the commission labelled as fake a graphic circulating on social media alleging that officers had conducted a raid at Chirchir's residence.
The viral post claimed that EACC recovered Ksh2.5 billion from the senior police officer's home.
However, the commission did not clarify or provide an update on whether the officer has been the subject of any active investigation. A file image of a traffic police officer manning traffic on a road in Nairobi.
