Judge Robert Wananda feels angry. He told three cops from DCI that they must catch Ibrahim Rotich fast. These officers work for homicide and need to find this man right away. Rotich disappeared after he paid his bail with cash. The judge says this never should have happened. No one stood up to help Rotich pay—he just gave cash directly to the court.
The judge blamed lazy police work for letting Rotich run away. He ordered the officers to bring Rotich back no matter what happened. Rotich broke every rule the court gave him. He stayed locked up for two years before his release on bond. The court told him not to leave Uasin Gishu County. He also had to stay away from Iten town where Agnes Tirop died.
The court banned Rotich from talking to the dead runner's family. He could not contact any witnesses who might speak against him. The police chief from Eldoret Central surprised everyone with a statement. He said that since starting his job on April 1st last year, he never once saw Rotich check in as required.
Officer Johnstone Sanga asked for extra time to find the missing man. He wants four weeks to search before reporting back. The judge agreed but expects results soon. He set the next court date for June 12 of this year. By that day, he hopes officers will bring Rotich to face justice.
Rotich faces serious charges for killing the athlete Agnes Tirop. The international runner died under terrible circumstances. The judge wants this case solved quickly. Three special officers must work hard to catch this man. The court shows little patience with their progress so far.
