Former Cabinet Secretary Justin Muturi has demanded that the police be held accountable for the death of teacher and blogger Albert Ojwang, who died while in their custody.
Muturi, who held the same view as the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR), raised concerns over what he termed as misuse of state power by some individuals out to achieve their selfish ends. "There seems to be a decline in constitutional freedom in the country," Muturi said as questions continued to mount over the circumstances surrounding the arrest of the 31-year-old and why he had to be transported from Homa Bay, after his arrest, to Nairobi.
Ojwang was transported from Homa Bay County to Nairobi before he died at Central Police Station.
