Belgut Member of Parliament (MP) Nelson Koech revealed that an investigation, although still in its early stages, has been initiated to identify those responsible for the Parliament breach on June 25 during the nationwide protests.

Speaking on Monday, Koech stated that parliamentary security is collaborating with the National Police Service to collect evidence to hold the culprits accountable. “There has not been any probe by parliament, but there is an initiation of a process of evidence gathering by CCTVs and capable individuals,” he said on Citizen TV’s Daybreak show.

This announcement comes amid questions about whether the legislative building has been conducting internal investigations to identify security loopholes. Koech also expressed confidence in President William Ruto’s commitment to hold all individuals involved in criminal acts during the protests accountable, including any culpable officers.

“It even includes sending a few officers away if they are found to be culpable, so I’m sure it’s a broad-based approach on how he is going to handle it,” he noted. “My responsibility as an MP is to invite the responsible agencies to explain to the country what might have happened and what IPOA is requesting from the police that they are not being given.”

Unarmed peaceful protesters were shot dead outside the parliament buildings during the breach, raising questions about why no action has been taken over a month later.

President Ruto has insisted that his administration will conduct thorough investigations to track down the “criminals” who invaded and torched Parliament, the Judiciary, and Nairobi County Government offices. He believes that those who invaded parliament targeted the armory and the mausoleum.
