A University Student is in distress after he was robbed a mobile phone with other valuable things by two police officers in Machakos County. The 2 police officers allegedly attacked the student and robbed him.
The police officers identified as Kevin Sila and David Muringu are reported to have stopped two Machakos University students as they headed to their rented hostels in the early hours of Monday morning.
According to a report from the DCI, the cops who were on a motorbike then descended on one of the students “with hand slaps as they searched his pockets.”
“His roommate however managed to escape the attack narrowly and took flight screaming, attracting neighbours who also happened to be students from the university,” wrote DCI.
Students within the premises then responded to the distressing calls and rescued the accosted student.
Attempts to run away by the two cops turned futile after handing back the stolen phone as officers from the Machakos police station had already arrived and arrested them.
The two will be under police custody at the Machakos police station awaiting to be arraigned in court.
