When will Joshua Njihia be buried?
The situation has remained in the area, with locals accusing the government of protecting a suspected official shooting.
Speaking in the mortuary, Joshua’s father, Samuel Njehia, expressed his sadness at what he described as a careless and vague investigation.
He explained his conversation with the Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) who revealed some of the results of their investigation.
Samuel explained that the only request for the family was to require the aggressive officer to face the law by his actions.
“The question I ask is this because even DCI He told us, when we got to the mortuary and talked to him, he said the gun that killed Joshua was known, but the soldier with the gun is still out, like the family we want to know: Where is the soldier who shot Joshua? We want to hear that he has been arrested, ” He said.
For a mourning family, justice is not just about confession but a step, emphasizing that they will not continue with Joshua’s burial until those involved are held accountable.
A lawyer who spoke on behalf of the Family Family Hihia reiterated the view, saying that no funeral arrangements would be made until people were arrested and the perpetrators were brought to court.
“The funeral of this young man lying here will not be held until we are convinced that the perpetrators have been arrested and brought to the court of law,” He said.
