The National Police Service has distanced itself from allegations that it plans to arrest Rigathi Gachagua, leader of the Democracy for the Citizens Party, upon his arrival in Kenya.
Addressing the press on Thursday morning, the Inspector General of Police, Douglas Kanja, said Gachagua's arrival in Kenya was an ordinary event and that the latter would be handled just like any other citizen.
He assured Kenyans of their safety, adding that the police service was fully in control and that any security breaches would be dealt with in accordance with the law.
However, Kanja noted that Gachagua, just like any other Kenyan citizen, was not above the law, and should any reports link him to any criminal activity, then necessary action would be taken.
