Deputy Inspector General of Police Eliud Lagat has been summoned by the Independent Policing Oversight Authority IPOA to answer questions relating to the death of blogger Albert Ojwang.
Lagat, who has been profusely mentioned in the case, will have to present himself to IPOA to record a statement as the Authority seeks to zero in on the persons responsible for Ojwang's death.
In a statement on Wednesday, June 18, IPOA Chairperson Issack Hassan confirmed that the investigative agency had found sufficient grounds to summon Lagat. "Having found a basis, IPOA has issued a summons to the Deputy Inspector General of Police Eliud Lagat to appear before the authorities' investigations team to record a statement," Hassan said in a statement on Wednesday.
