Prof Kindiki said leaders are committed to ensure the families are compensated since their kin died in the hands of the police. "We will ensure as local leaders from this region that the families of the three slain Kenyans are compensated and we also ask them to follow up the matter with relevant Government departments," said Kindiki. "It is unfortunate if the police, who are supposed to protect citizens, turn around and kill the same people they are supposed to protect," he said. He urged the Government to ensure a proper inquest is conducted to restore Kenyans' confidence in the police service.
