Deputy Inspector-General of Police Eliud Lagat is at the center of a legal and public controversy following the death of teacher Albert Ojwang. While many believed Lagat had stepped aside due to the ongoing investigation, he insists he was merely on an 18-day annual leave, not suspended or resigned. The Attorney General and National Police Service Commission have urged the court to dismiss petitions seeking his removal, arguing they lack legal merit. Lagat claims the calls for his suspension are baseless and an abuse of the court process. The situation has raised questions about police accountability and transparency in handling high-profile investigations.
