The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Keriako Tobiko has ordered for investigations, arrest and prosecution of goons that assaulted journalists on Tuesday during NASA’s meeting.
Tobiko has asked the Inspector General of Police, Joseph Boinnet to speedily investigate the attack.
Francis Gachuri of Citizen Tv and NTV’s Jane Gatwiri were roughed up at Wiper Party headquarters in Lavington while awaiting Raila Odinga’s announcement.
The goons accused the two of being pro-jubilee government.
ODM’s communications director, Philip Etale came to their aid and helped move them to safety.
The ODM party leader apologized to the members of the fourth estate and condemned the act by people he said were ‘not invited to the meeting.’
