Ruiru constituency Member of Parliament Ng’ang’a King’ara has warned rogue police officers against colluding with criminals to terrorize residents.
According to the lawmaker, police officers should not be allowed to operate in one station for more than 1 year.
"I don’t want to see police officers staying in this area for over 1 year because some of them will be familiar with the criminals in the area and start robbing traders and residents,” he said.
The MP claimed that some officers have been frustrating efforts to end crime in the area.
“Criminals have been left to walk freely after committing crimes because officers are not doing their job as provided by the law. No sympathy to criminals, Ruiru should be a safe area for traders to do their businesses day and night,” he added.
Ng’ang’a was speaking in Ruiru town on Wednesday.
