IPOA retrieves CCTV footage in Albert Ojwang murder case, shows police interaction with unidentified men

The Independent Policing Oversight Authority IPOA has retrieved deleted CCTV footage from Central Police Station, dated June 7, 2025, related to the death of Albert Ojwang. The footage, presented before the Kibra High Court on Monday, July 21, shows a police officer, PC Kimani, interacting with two unidentified men in caps at the station before they proceeded to the holding cell. Later, the two unidentified individuals returned, their heads lowered and faces shielded, and were seen engaging PC Kimani again. In a separate sequence, a group of five people was captured running rapidly to the last cell, carrying an unidentified object. This footage emerged after a digital forensics expert testified that the station's CCTV recording system had been interfered with, and internal components were found removed from the DVR before IPOA documented the device. Authorities are now working to identify the two men seen with the officer.
