He said police had taken the fingerprints of Muhammad whose body was lying at Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital mortuary, to establish if he had a criminal record.
Mr Muhoro maintained that the intruder, who killed a police officer and injured another during the Saturday attack, did not gain access to Mr Ruto’s main house.
Muslim leaders in the North Rift said they had little information about the hawker.
Police have identified the man who entered Deputy President William Ruto’s residence in Uasin Gishu, leading to a 19-hour shootout.
Directorate of Criminal Investigations boss Ndegwa Muhoro identified the hawker as Mohammed Ibrahim Muhammad from Dandu Village, Mandera East Sub-County.
