Boinnet issues stern warning to SGR vandals

The Inspector General (IG) of Police, Joseph Boinnet, has issued a stern warning to criminals suspected of vandalizing and stealing materials from the standard gauge railway (SGR) saying they will face the full wrath of the law if found.

Speaking after inspecting the Mtito Andei SGR Station in Kibwezi County, the IG lamented that the project is yet to be launched on June 1, 2017, but some people are already sabotaging the process by stealing its materials.

“We have received intelligence that some people are spoiling the SGR, their days are numbered and they will be brought to justice soon,” said the IG.

The IG now wants residents to cooperate with the police in helping to bring the criminals to justice, saying police cannot do this on their own.

“The SGR is a very important project that will help the country grow economically. The residents should know this and therefore help the police in catching the criminals,” the IG added.
