Murkomen: Police no longer rely on Gachagua's 'gossip'

Speaking during the handover of the ANSI National Accreditation Board certification to the Forensic Evidence Management Unit and the launch of the Multi-Biometric Identification System at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations headquarters on Thursday, Murkomen said the country has shifted from outdated investigative methods to science-based policing.

Murkomen dismissed claims that 68 women were raped by police officers during the Ol Kalou parliamentary by-election, urging anyone with evidence to report the matter to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, the Independent Policing Oversight Authority or the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights.
