PHOTO: COURTESYA magistrate and suspects scampered for safety when an Administration Police officer opened fire on an open court session in Kathangachini market, Tharaka Nithi County. The AP officer's colleagues had a hard time trying to disarm him as he became uncontrollable. Gatunga OCPD Hesbon Kadenge said it was not clear why the officer fired his gun. "However, we are investigating to establish the motive behind the shooting after which we will take him to court," he said. The incident comes barely a month after another officer based at Gatunga Police Station stabbed a colleague twice with a knife.
