DCI boss dismisses claims of summoning Gachagua over involvement in June 25 protests
The DCI boss has now dismissed reports of summoning former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua over his involvement in the June 25 protests.
While addressing the media at the DCI headquarters during a briefing on the events of June 25, Amin denied DCI summoning Gachagua.
He went on to state that Gachagua does not enjoy any immunity from prosecution, and should he be found guilty of participating in any criminal activity during the protests, he will be arrested and charged.
Amin emphasised that Gachagua is not above the law and is subject to the laws of the land like any other Kenyan. He further stated in strong terms that if investigations by the DCI reveal that Gachagua was involved in any form of criminality, appropriate action will be taken against him.
“It is not true that we have summoned Rigathi Gachagua, but I would like to point out very clearly that Rigathi Gachagua does not enjoy any immunity against prosecution; he is subject to the laws of the land. If in our investigations he is found to have been involved in any criminal activity, perpetrated any criminal activity, or aided or abetted any criminal activity, then appropriate action will be taken against Rigathi Gachagua.” Amin said.
