What you need to know:

  • The officer’s death caused panic at the bank.
  • The bank was briefly cordoned off by the county Covid-19 surveillance team who picked the body.
  • The traditional 21-gun salute was not done in line with Covid-19 health protocols.

A 47-year-old police officer who collapsed and died while guarding a bank in Meru two weeks ago did not succumb to Covid-19.

This was revealed Monday during the officer’s burial.
