The High Court has ordered a fresh investigation into the Kenya National Police Sacco (NPS DT Sacco) over allegations of embezzlement and fraud involving its board of directors.
Justice Alexander Muteti ruled that the Sacco Societies Fraud Investigations Unit (SSFIU) should handle the probe, overriding previous orders that had granted the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) authority to investigate the case.
The ruling came after a review of an earlier order issued in January 2025, which had authorized the DCI to investigate the Sacco's financial activities.
The Sacco filed an urgent application seeking to stop the DCI from proceeding with the investigation, arguing that the DCI's involvement was outside its legal jurisdiction.
