TEACHER BURIED.

TEACHER BURIED.
JANE MUGAMBI 11TH JAN 2012.
Mwea Mp Peter Gitau has said police need to fasten investigations in the killings of a deputy principal of a secondary school in Kirinyaga County.
Speaking during the burial ceremony of Dickson Mwangi at Karoti girls’ grounds he said that it is very unfortunate that only one person has been arrested and is being treated as a suspect.
He said that the police are supposed to be looking for the masterminds as well as those who killed him.
“The police are supposed to be looking for those behind the killings even if the killers are believed to be at large” added Gitau.
The MP added that people are not supposed to be taking other peoples lives adding that the killings are being done by idlers who are hired for a fee.
“Why take a life that you cannot eat” he asked the killers.
Gitau added that the police need to fasten and gather enough evidence so that the killers will not be released for lack of evidence as it has been happening for sometime.
He said that the act has overwhelmed the whole constituency with the recent killing citing that Mathiga-ini killings that left four boda boda cyclists who were murdered in cold blood saw their killers shot dead in a gun battle at Nguka village and one escaped with gun shots.
Peter Ndambiri said that it is sudden that teachers have turned to be a target by murders in Mwea.
He said that five years down the line at Kanjinji secondary school where five teachers were killed, nobody has been arrested citing that even a replacement has never been done for fear of more attacks.
He said that there is community policing lapse in Mwea where the members elected to beef up security are not working but sleeping on the job.
Ndambiri said that leaders need to sensitize the people on the importance of security saying that the killers are known but they are not uprooted from the society giving them way to kill.
“The criminals need to be removed from the community since they are well known, unless that is done then we are supposed to get more killings” added Ndambiri.
