Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has challenged the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) boss Amin Mohammed, urging him to obtain a statement from Kikuyu lawmaker Kimani Ichung'wah over claims that his parents were targeted during the recent demonstrations.
Addressing congregants during a burial service in Nyandarua County on Tuesday, July 1, Gachagua questioned why the National Assembly Majority leader had yet to record a statement with the police despite making such a grievous allegation.
He faulted Ichung'wah for seeking public empathy by accusing the opposition politicians of allegedly plotting to kill his parents instead of reporting the matter to the police. "I have seen the DCI speaking, the Kikuyu MP went to Parliament and claimed that he knew those who wanted to take the lives of his parents.
Has he written a statement to the police?" Gachagua questioned.
