Senate Boss Blasts Police Over Narok Deaths

Senate boss Aaron Cheruiyot scolded police leaders after officers killed five people in Narok County. He confronted Police Chief Douglas Kanja and investigations head Mohamed Amin during a Tuesday meeting where the violence happened. Cheruiyot asked if poor training caused officers to shoot people in the head rather than just stop them. He challenged both leaders about what legacy they wanted to leave behind.

The senator demanded immediate action against officers who pulled triggers. He told Amin that locals had already identified who did the shooting. The violence broke out Monday over land disputes when residents blocked roads to prevent government surveys. People claiming to be traditional owners stopped officials from measuring the area. The clash turned violent, with both sides reporting injuries.

Community elders tried to calm the situation through talks between angry residents and authorities. Interior Minister Kipchumba Murkomen promised legal action against anyone who stirred up trouble. Local leaders asked everyone to avoid more fights and settle differences peacefully about who really owns the land.
