Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) boss Mohammed Amin has said Samson Taalam should be treated as the prime suspect in the murder of Albert Ojwang.
Speaking before the Senate, Amin identified Taalam, the Officer Commanding Station (OCS) at Central Police Station, as the individual most responsible for Ojwang's death, which occurred on Sunday, June 8. "Taalam is the OCS of Central Police Station, and by the totality of things, he should be treated as the prime suspect in this matter," Amin stated.
After news of Ojwang's murder broke and details of the role of Central Police Station in the murder emerged, Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja interdicted Taalam and five others.
Aside from Taalam, other interdicted officers included the deputy OCS, the deputy non-commissioned officer, crime aid officer, cell sentry officer, and report office personnel.
