KTN has established that the vehicle used by the killer squad in the murder of Kasipul MP Charles Ong’ondo Were belongs to an assistant police commissioner. Investigators are tracing its role in the crime.
The car, registered under number plate KAZ 645 Z, was reportedly used to transport suspects and move them around Nairobi in the lead-up to the assassination of the late legislator.
Sources indicate that the vehicle was purchased for 300,000 shillings. Authorities are examining its ownership documents and the circumstances under which the vehicle was acquired.
Investigators are also studying how the vehicle ended up in the hands of the alleged killers. Its involvement has raised serious questions about internal security and complicity within law enforcement circles.
Security experts say the use of a high-profile officer’s vehicle suggests a well-coordinated plan. It points to access, inside knowledge, and resources that ordinary criminals would struggle to obtain.
Police are now interviewing witnesses who may have seen the vehicle moving around key locations before the attack. Footage from traffic and surveillance cameras is being cross-referenced with the car’s movements.
The revelation has intensified scrutiny on the police hierarchy. Citizens and political leaders are demanding accountability, insisting the investigation must reveal any internal collusion.
KTN reports that the vehicle’s involvement is central to piecing together the logistics of the attack. Investigators believe tracking its journey may uncover additional suspects or accomplices.
Authorities continue to assure the public that all evidence will be fully examined. They emphasize the case is ongoing, and no conclusions about individual culpability have yet been reached.
The late MP Ong’ondo Were’s death continues to shock the nation. This latest discovery adds a new layer of complexity to the investigation, raising concerns about the misuse of official resources in criminal activities.
