Wednesday, October 1, 2025 - A family in Elgeyo Marakwet is in agony after their kin, Hassan Kiptoo Kipchumba, was allegedly abducted by officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) office based at Tot Police Station.
The incident occurred on the night of Tuesday, September 23rd,
2025, at Savanna Club in Tot, Marakwet.
Witnesses claim the officers used excessive force, injuring
and blindfolding Kiptoo before firing several gunshots into the air and taking
him away.
His aunt rushed to Tot
Police Station to inquire about his whereabouts, but police
denied holding him in custody.
Residents say they are now living in fear, noting that three other young men have gone missing
in similar circumstances.
Kiptoo, who ran a barber shop in Lodwar, had visited Tot in
May this year.
His family is now desperately seeking answers, urging the
authorities to follow due
process if he is suspected of any crime.
Efforts to get justice for their missing kin have so far been unsuccessful.
