A Member of County Assembly was yesterday grilled by detectives over alleged involvement in the killing of two police officers in Kapedo at the border of Baringo and Turkana counties.
Silale MCA Nelson Lotela, accompanied by lawyer Gordon Ogolla, presented himself at the Rift Valley regional Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) offices where he was grilled for hours.
Security agencies accuse Lotela of being involved in procurement of illegal firearms and ammunition.
According to Ogolla, his client presented himself to the DCI following reports that he was linked to insecurity in the region.
