DCI In A Mistaken Identity Raw

The directorate of Criminal investigation DCI has issued a public apology and offered clarification following the arrest of suspects who were mistakenly identified.
This was following the false arrest of a victim in a fact of mistaken identity on 9th September 2020 at Nyayo High-Rise by three GSU officers, DCI, SSU & CRIB detectives who had managed to arrest the perpetrators alongside a civilian accomplice in the last six days
The three suspects; Gideon Sumare, Kelvin Kone Omerikwa & Shallan Ooro Ouma who are police constables based at Ruiru GSU Camp and who were posing as DCI detectives, pounced on the victim as he parked his car outside his residence, before forcing him into the private Toyota Land cruiser they were using and which belongs to the civilian suspect; Nelson Sechere Mukura.
