According to Murkomen, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) is now working with foreign agencies to trace and arrest them.
Murkomen was responding to Suba South MP Caroli Omondi, who told the National Assembly that while 17 “goons” were said to have attacked the senator, only three had presented themselves to police, and questioned why the rest had not been arrested.
In response, Murkomen claimed 13 or 14 of the suspects escaped from Kenya soon after the attack.
“The rest of the goons who attacked Osotsi… ran out of the country. DCI are operating with other countries to arrest them. We will arrest all of them,” he told MPs.
The remarks came as three suspects arrested over the April 8 incident appeared in court and denied charges.
According to the prosecution, the accused — Eric Otieno alias ‘Dube’, Vincent Odhiambo alias ‘Tinga’ and Carlos Owiti alias ‘Kalonje’ — allegedly attacked the senator alongside accomplices who are still at large and robbed him of valuables during an incident at an eatery in Kisumu.
The trio was arraigned before Kisumu Resident Magistrate Daniel Chumba on Friday and pleaded not guilty to two counts of robbery with violence and stealing, contrary to the Penal Code.
Defence lawyer Ken Omollo urged the court to grant the suspects bail, arguing they had cooperated with investigators.
However, the prosecution opposed the application, citing ongoing efforts to apprehend other suspects linked to the attack.
The court granted each of the accused a bond of Ksh1 million, and set the matter for mention on May 6, 2026.
