Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Nominated MP John Mbadi has claimed that the probe into the alleged extrajudicial killings has a predetermined objective to zero in on ex-top security bosses.<\/p>\n

The ODM chairman alleged that President William Ruto is keen on having ex-Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i arrested and charged.<\/p>\n

According to Mbadi, the probe on the disbanded Special Services Unit of the DCI is part of of a plan to also prosecute ex-DCI boss George Kinoti.<\/p>\n

Matiang’i and Kinoti are perceived to have been the face of the ‘deep state’ that Ruto repeatedly claimed was furiously hell-bent on blocking his ascension to the presidency.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe target is Kinoti and Matiang’i…we know it and we hear it from them,\u201d Mbadi said in Homa Bay on Friday.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese guys did their job, let them go and rest.\u201d<\/p>\n

President Ruto announced that Kinoti had resigned as DCI director but the National Police Service Commission later said it had accepted his transfer of service to the Public Service Commission.<\/p>\n

Mbadi said the approach by Ruto’s administration to go after former security bosses would demoralise officers from working for government.<\/p>\n

“People will be scared to work for government, tomorrow Ruto will be out, we don’t want to victimise his officers,” Mbadi said.<\/p>\n

The MP warned that the criminal justice system in Kenya was collapsing with targeted victimisation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can’t have a government in place and then the next day they start victisimising former officers,\u201d Mbadi said.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet him(Ruto) not victimise Kinoti…let him not victimise Matiang’i.\u201d<\/p>\n

The SSU officers under investigation are said to have led a killer squad that abducted, tortured and murdered tens of Kenyans and some foreigners.<\/p>\n
