Interior Cabinet Secretary Fred Matiang’i has directed Director of Public Prosecutions Noordin Haji to appeal the acquittal of Pastor James Ng’ang’a of charges of causing death through dangerous driving.
In a letter to Mr Haji and Inspector-General Joseph Boinnet, Dr Matiang’i says the government is not satisfied with the ruling of Magistrate Godfrey Oduor.
Evidence implicating the pastor, the CS says, was overwhelming.
He requested for the investigative file and trial proceedings.
“The ministry notes with surprise the acquittal handed down in the above case where we believe a brazen crime was committed by the accused person,” reads a letter written by the CS and copied to Mr Haji and IG Joseph Boinnet.
