CS for Interior Kipchumba Murkomen has claimed that no citizen has been killed by police since President Ruto became the President of Kenya.
His statement disregarded the fact that there were documented deaths during the anti-finance bill protests.
Murkomen’s statement came days after Law Society of Kenya, Human rights and other firms including fellow Kenyans raised their concerns about abductions and killings.

According to the reports, the cases of abductions since the anti-protest in June was recorded to be over 82 while 29 still missing as of December.
It was reported that those Kenyans were being abducted in broad daylight and among the reasons was because they criticized the government online.
According to the reports, during the anti-protest, several people were killed on live camera, especially those who journeyed to protest in State House to stop the Bill from being implemented.
Murkomen recently said that no citizen had been killed by police under Ruto’s administration.
Since President Ruto took reigns of office, there is no single citizen who has been killed by police, nor has there ever been a policy of killing people the way we used to see bodies in River Yala and others in River Tana. Since he took office in two years, nobody has been killed.
The Interior Cabinet Secretary said.
