EACC has distanced itself from the allegations hours after Senior Counsel made the claims to the media. The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has distanced itself from allegations of harassing participants in the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) Appeal case. EACC spoke barely a day since one of the lawyers, John Khaminwa, claimed his life was in danger after two men posing as state officers visited his Kileleshwa Offices on Saturday, July 3, afternoon. “We wish to notify the public that we (EACC) did not conduct any operation yesterday and media reports suggesting that EACC visited the offices of John Khaminwa Senior Counsel are unfounded,” The Anti-graft body tweeted on Sunday morning. Khaminwa, a Senior Counsel, had claimed the duo identified themselves as police officers from the EACC.
