Embattled Deputy Inspector General of Police Eliud Lagat and Erick Ndambuki, one of the remandees, claimed to have participated in the murder of Albert Ojwang' have been dropped from the list of suspects.
Following public pressure, Lagat stepped aside and ultimately recorded a statement before the Independent Police Oversight Authority (Ipoa), which opted not to recommend charges against him.
Further, although Ndambuki had been adversely mentioned in Police Constable James Mukhwana's damning statement before the Ipoa, he too was yesterday not among those who appeared before High Court Diana Mochache to face murder charges.
Lagat's lawyer, Cecil Miller, said the DIG told Ipoa that he had nothing to do with the murder.
