Nairobi Officer Commanding Station (OCS) Samson Kiprotich Talaam, a person of interest in the murder of Albert Omondi Ojwang, has been arraigned at the Milimani Law Courts.
OCS Talaam was arraigned before Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Benmark Ekhubi on Monday, June 16, 2025, for a miscellaneous application.
