MP Patrick Makau, police summoned for questioning over Mavoko land
Mavoko MP Patrick Makau pleads with police officers during the demolition of houses on land claimed by East African Portland in Mavoko, Machakos County on Saturday, October 14.
Mr Makau had attempted to address the evictees on Monday but was chased away by police officers who tear-gassed him.
The DCI also called on evictees to come forward with documents proving purchase and payments as well as certificates showing ownership of the plots.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has summoned Mavoko MP Patrick Makau alongside several senior police officers for questioning over the controversial East African Portland Cement Company (EAPCC) land where demolitions are ongoing.
Apparently bowing to public pressure to prosecute culprits behind the land scam, the DCI has summoned 30 people, including the MP and top police chiefs who have served in Mavoko Sub-county since 2014, as well as officials from the Ministry of Lands, to appear at its Kiambu Road headquarters today.
