Two former Officers Commanding Station (OCS) from Central and Kamukunji Police Stations yesterday gave detailed testimony in the ongoing inquest into the death of 29-year-old activist Rex Masai, who was fatally shot during the anti-Finance Bill protests in Nairobi last year.
Chief Inspector Moses Mutayi Shikuku, then OCS at Central Police Station and currently Deputy Police Commander for Juja Sub-County, appeared alongside his former counterpart, Robert Mugo Rono of Kamukunji Police Station, before Milimani Law Courts.
They were summoned to account for their deployments and actions on the day Masai was killed.
The late activist was shot on June 19, 2024, in the Central Business District (CBD) as protests against the Finance Bill turned chaotic.
