Hannington Ouma Otieno, a dedicated member of the community policing committee in Nakuru West, has devoted his life to fighting crime in the region. The height of this sabotage was Ouma's controversial arrest last week and detention at Kaptembwo Police Station for over eight hours. Expressing his frustration, Ouma said that the Community Policing Committee's work has been greatly hindered by rogue police officers colluding with criminals. While recognizing the possibility of rogue elements within the police service, the area police boss said efforts are ongoing to root them out. Nakuru County Commissioner Loyford Kibaara assured investigations have been initiated into the complaints against the police officers.
