A pregnant woman, Catherine Njeri, has allegedly died after being pushed from a moving police vehicle in Kenya. Police officers from Wang'uru Police Station are under investigation for the incident.

• The woman's husband, Anthony Muturi Mugweru, claims they were given a lift by police officers who later demanded Ksh1,000.
• The husband was also allegedly pushed from the vehicle, sustaining serious injuries.
• The Inspector General of the National Police Service has been briefed and directed the Director of Criminal Investigations to expedite the investigation.

The National Police Service (NPS) is investigating the suspected murder of a pregnant woman, identified as Catherine Njeru, whose body was discovered early Friday morning by the roadside in the Itangi area of Kirinyaga County.

• The victim sustained visible injuries to her head and hip.
• The investigation is being led by the Kirinyaga County Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officers, local Sub-County police, and the Central Regional Police Command.
• The Inspector General of the NPS has been briefed and directed the Director of Criminal Investigations to expedite the probe.

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) has clarified that no criminal charges were filed against two police officers and two civilians initially linked to rape and robbery allegations.

• No criminal charges were preferred against the four suspects.
• The ODPP made the determination based on insufficient evidence.
• A critical factor was the complainant's non-attendance at an identification parade.

The National Police Service (NPS) is set to launch mandatory ethics and integrity training for all officers, from recruits to commanders, as part of a comprehensive strategy to combat corruption within the force.

• The new training will feature two distinct modules developed by the National Criminal Investigations Academy (NCIA), focusing on general responsibilities and leadership roles respectively.
• Key figures involved include Assistant Inspector General and NPS Director of Training and Research Aljir Hassan, advocating for the immediate adoption of the modules across all training institutions.
• This initiative comes amid ongoing corruption cases and a Kenya National Gender and Corruption Survey 2025 report indicating police officers received an average bribe of Ksh4,656.
