City Hall has ordered investigations into the attack on a Citizen TV journalist on Tuesday, the Communications office said. Kimani Mbugua was assaulted while filming a bribe-thirsty city askari demanding cash from a boda boda rider. Elkana Jacob, director Governor Press Service, said the county works on a policy of zero-tolerance to corruption. Jacob said the officer will be treated fairy but firmly, and, should they be found guilty, they will be prosecuted. Citizen TV noted that Mbugua identified himself as a journalist and insisted that he be taken to Central Police station but the county officers declined.
