Chief inspector Robert Owino denied that he, at some point, tried convincing Ms Sylvia Wanjiku, one of the police officers facing murder charges, to make a confession. “No, I never tried reaching out to her,” Mr Owino said while being cross-examined by lawyer Katwa Kigen. He said Ms Wanjiku was on duty at the Syokimau Administration Police camp the day Mr Kimani, Mr Mwenda and Mr Muiruri were kidnapped after leaving the Mavoko Law Courts. Mr Owino said she reported to work at 6am and took a short break at 11am for personal errands. Pressed harder by Mr Kigen, the officer said nobody gave direct evidence that Ms Wanjiku met the three victims.
