The Officer Commanding Station (OCS) at Nairobi's Central Police Station and all officers who were on duty during the night when popular influencer Albert Ojwang died have been interdicted.

This follows widespread public concern over the circumstances surrounding his death while in police custody.

In a statement issued in the early morning hours by National Police Service (NPS) Corporate Communications Director Muchiri Nyaga, speaking on behalf of Inspector General Douglas Kanja, the officers were interdicted to pave the way for an independent investigation.

The move is meant to ensure no interference as inquiries into the influencer's mysterious death progress.
