Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen released new guidelines governing police force applications on Friday. The directive targets Inspector General Douglas Kanja and establishes uniform standards across Kenya's National Police Service. Constitutional provisions and court rulings formed the foundation for these regulations. Modern equipment like body cameras and digital recording systems will enhance transparency during operations. Officers must justify any physical intervention through legal frameworks.

Physical power becomes permissible when officers face resistance or need compliance from suspects. The policy demands proportionate responses that serve as final options after peaceful methods fail. Firearms require life-threatening situations before deployment becomes acceptable. Vulnerable populations receive additional protections under the new framework. The Independent Policing Oversight Authority must receive immediate notification following force incidents.

Training programs will emphasize mental health screening and ethical conduct for all personnel. Data collection systems will monitor complaint patterns and officer performance metrics. Legal representation becomes available for officers facing use-of-force investigations through the Attorney General's office.
