Three Kenya Forest Service officers will on Monday be charged with murder just days after they were arrested for assaulting a boda boda operator in Eldama Ravine.
The officers, drawn from the Narasha Forest, are facing murder charges after 26-year-old Augustine Kipkoech succumbed to injuries he reportedly sustained during the assault.
On Wednesday last week, the three officers were taken in after attacking the boda boda rider who had been sent to fetch fencing posts by a client in the forest.
The family recalled hearing gunshots from the forest and running to see what had transpired.
