The shooting brings to 15 the number of suspected criminals killed in three weeks.

The officers allegedly recovered a pistol stolen from a policeman based at Ruaraka police station.

Officer Martin Korir was killed and his gun taken on the night of April 27 inside a Neo Kenya bus on Thika Road.

Robbers had taken charge of the bus and began robbing passengers including Korir’s two colleagues. 

Korir worked in SPIV, a special team of undercover officers who trace and kill notorious criminals.

He shot twice on the bus’s roof to scare away the robbers. But they overpowered Korir, took his gun and shot him dead.
