AfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> The Director of Public Prosecution (DPP) has waded into a case where a worker shot in a botched robbery is pursuing compensation from his employer.<\/p>\n

Aboud Nyenye says he was driving his employer to the bank to deposit some money in November 2018 when he was shot during a robbery attempt.According to Nyenye, armed gangsters accosted him along Mombasa’s Moi Avenue as he drove his employer and an accountant to the bank.<\/p>\n

“They threatened to shoot us if we did not surrender the money,” says Nyenye who was a company driver.He says the robbers opened fire when the money was not surrendered and he and the accountant were shot.<\/p>\n

The accountant died on the spot while Nyenye was admitted to hospital for nine days where he accumulated a bill of Sh1,480, 897, which was paid by his employer through an insurance firm.<\/p>\n

After being discharged from hospital, Nyenye says his employer offered him some Sh231,680 as compensation for the injuries sustained which he turned down, instead demanding at least Sh5 million.According to his lawyers, Nyenye’s employer owes the company driver compensation for exposing him to grave danger.<\/p>\n

Lawyers Eugene Wangila and Daniel Wamotsa want police to investigate the matter to establish all the facts of the shooting.<\/p>\n

The lawyers have written several letters to the DPP and police demanding answers from officers at the Makupa Police Station where the matter was reported.\u201cWe hereby beseech your good office in line with Article 157 of the Constitution to move the National Police Service to perform their mandate as stipulated in the Constitution and forward the police file for necessary action,\u201d the letter concluded.<\/p>\n

The DPP\u2019s senior counsel, David Fedha, in a letter dated April 8, 2020, to the OCS Makupa, requested that the file be placed before the DPP.\u201cWe have received a complaint letter from Wamotsa Wangila Advocates kindly but urgently forward the police file for our perusal and advice,\u201d read Fedha\u2019s letter.<\/p>\n

Contacted by The Standard, Nyenye’s employer denied any liability for his injuries, and advised him to follow up payments with insurers.”I have nothing to do with the compensation. He can pursue his compensation with the insurance company that insured him,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
