The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) boss George Kinoti has revealed two factors that are likely to solve Deputy President William Ruto’s alleged assassination puzzle.
Kinoti stated that his team will focus on the mystery letter that alleged a plot to kill DP Ruto.
Speaking on Tuesday evening, the DCI said that they will seek to confirm the authenticity of the letter. He also promised to unearth its source and how it was shared.
“We are treating that letter seriously and investigators want to ascertain its origin and authenticity. Once we know the source of the letter and how it came to existence, we shall focus on the authenticity of the issues raised,” said Kinoti.
State House did not give a clear response concerning the authenticity of the letter that is raising political temperatures in the ruling Jubilee party. Dena directed interested parties to wait for the investigation findings before making any conclusions.
“What I can confirm is that the matter is now being handled by detectives. As for authenticity, we must wait for the investigators to finish their work,” said the State House Spokesperson.
Some of the Cabinet Secretaries accused of plotting to eliminate DP Ruto are Sicily Kariuki (Health), Joe Mucheru (ICT) and Peter Munya (Trade and Industry). They have denied having any links to the alleged assassination.
