A section of Tinga’ng’a elders in Kiambu county have called on the Director of Public Prosecutions Keriako Tobiko to ensure that the killers of human rights lawyer Willie Kimani, his client and driver are brought to book.
The elders on Thursday condemned the killing of the three and urged the government to expedite investigations and prosecution of the suspects.
Joshua Irungu an elder said that those who were involved in the murder must be dealt with accordingly.
“The police and the DPP must work expeditiously and make sure that culprits involved in the killing of lawyer Kimani, his driver and client are dealt with,” he said.
Mr Irungu also asked the government to ensure that security of all Kenyans is guaranteed.
“It is saddening that innocent lives of three young men can be just taken away like that,” said Samson Njeru, another elder in Ting’ang’a.
Mr Njeru asked the law enforcement agencies to provide security for all Kenyans.
The bodies of human rights lawyer Willie Kimani, his client and driver were found dumped in Ol donyo Sabuk River last Friday a week after they went missing.
The killing of three has attracted global condemnation with human rights groups accusing the police of engaging in extrajudicial killings.
Investigation into the killing of the three is ongoing with already four suspects in police custody.
On Tuesday Director of Criminal Investigation Ndegwa Muhoro said that they were involving the FBI in the investigation.
