A family in Makueni is demanding full accountability over the death of one Gedion Makau, who was found dead inside a cell at Kilungu Police Station, with his relatives rejecting police claims that he died by suicide. He was taken to Kilungu Police Station, where he was booked into custody, but by Wednesday morning, his family was informed that he had died. Police later summoned the relatives and informed them that Makau had allegedly taken his own life using his trousers. His family claims officers arrived at the scene and shot him, before allegedly claiming that he had been found in possession of stolen items. For two days, the family said it had been unable to obtain an Occurrence Book number from Githurai 44 Police Station, where the incident allegedly occurred.
