DCI boss George Kinoti, also present at the meeting, made damning revelations about unlawful killings within the force.
During the dialogue-themed forum attended by various human rights activists and local residents, the head of the DCI went on to reveal that he had witnessed killings carried out by Kenyan police officers.
“I acknowledge it happens (unlawful killings), some of us do it,” Kinoti disclosed.
