Two officers; Simon Siengo and Issack Dida were arrested in the compound. However, police claim their boss only identified as Chief Inspector Ekiru escaped arrest. Ekiru is believed to be the one who eloped with Sudi.
Barasa says Sudi had invited the three officers for dinner at his home. He said the three, who were attached to Deputy President William Ruto, were on their way to Nairobi after dropping the DP at his Sugoi Home.
“They were in Sugoi with the DP and had just fallen out from their assignment. Sudi had organized for them to sleep in Eldoret before returning to Nairobi,” the Kimilili MP, who is a close friend to Oscar Sudi said.
