A senior police officer in Murang’a County has demanded an apology from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations for allegedly misinforming the public.
The officer claimed the DCI called his wife names on social media after they falsely accused her of spiking his drink.
On Monday, DCI wrote on its social media platforms that a man had been admitted to the hospital after a woman he was drinking with stupefied his drink. The woman was accused of unsuccessfully trying to empty the man’s bank accounts before the bar waiter came to his rescue.
But it now turns out the woman and the man were married, and he just felt sick when they were out having some drinks.
“I take alcohol. My wife does not take alcohol. I was feeling unwell, but I was determined to take my wife out. But after taking several bottles, I felt weak and told my wife to drive me to hospital,” he said.
According to the policeman, after regaining consciousness, his wife was nowhere to be found.
“I enquired about how I ended up in the hospital, and the nurses told me that police officers from Kenol police station brought me in,” he added.
He was then shown the DCI Twitter timeline, which contained the story.
The tweet thread described how a man was fighting for his life at a hospital in Murang’a County after his lover laced a drink he was drinking with an unknown substance, rendering him unconscious.
According to the DCI report, the woman was a member of the ‘basmati babes’ gang, and the man was just another victim.
His wife was later released after explaining that she was his wife. The officers who arrested her apologized as well.
The senior police officer has now requested that DCI boss George Kinoti order the immediate restructuring of DCI’s social media platforms.
