According to Nyamira County commissioner Isaiah Nakoru, police will ensure culprits are brought to book.
“Causing mayhem is illegal and anyone found should be arrested and prosecuted. What we need is to have peace among our people," he said.
The commissioner also asked local government officers to be more vigilant and help police to arrest criminals in the area terrorizing innocent residents.
“State officers in deep villages should work closely with police to ensure any crime suspect is arrested and taken to court,” he added.
