The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Renson Ingonga has blamed slow and incomplete investigations by agencies like the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) for the delays in prosecuting cases of police misconduct.

• The DPP's office only acts upon receiving complete investigation files with sufficient evidence.
• Ingonga emphasized that his office operates at the "tail end" of the criminal justice process and cannot initiate trials without thorough investigations.
• Public outrage often incorrectly targets the DPP, whereas the responsibility for investigation lies with other agencies.
