“The Directorate of Criminal Investigations is warming Hon Didmus Barasa, who has since gone into hiding after the brutal murder of one Brian Olunga, to surrender to the nearest police station within the next 6-hours,” said the DCI.
A specialized team of DCI sleuths based from the Crime Research and Intelligence Bureau (CRIB) and the Homicide department has been dispatched to assist in his manhunt.
“Hon Barasa, is wanted for the cold blooded murder of Brian, who he shot on the forehead killing him on the spot, on Tuesday August 8, at Chebukwabi in Kimilili, Bungoma County,” said the DCI.
