High Court judge Hon. Justice Martin Muya sharply rebuked top Kenyan security officials, Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja and Director of Criminal Investigations Mohamed Amin, for failing to personally appear in court regarding the missing former KDF soldier and security analyst Mwenda Mbijiwe.

• Justice Martin Muya expressed displeasure over the absence of Kanja and Amin at a court proceeding on Tuesday, December 16, 2025.
• Advocate Paul Nyamodi represented the officials, claiming inadequate summons service and arguing the investigating officer was better equipped to update the court.
• The investigating officer confirmed a missing persons report for Mbijiwe was filed by his wife at Lang’ata Police Station and later by his stepmother in 2021.
• Mbijiwe has been missing for nearly four years following his alleged abduction.
