The government has agreed to pay the Ksh 60 million reward to persons who assisted in the re-arrest Kamiti criminals.
This is after they bowed to pressure from Kenyans, who compelled them to keep their promise.
On Sunday, November 21, Police Spokesperson Bruno Shioso verified the individual would receive the entire money.
He warned, however, they will carry proper verification to determine who provided the information.
This information led to the arrest of the three men on their way to Somalia.
“The administration accepts that the suspect’s re-arrest was possible with the help of the general people.
They have realigned claims of multiple people who claim to have played a role in the capture of the convicts..
“The government plans to follow through on its promise to pay the financial prize.
This, however, will be subject to a thorough verification process to guarantee that they give the incentive to deserving individuals.
Shioso also stated that they will not release the names of the eventual beneficiariess in order to safeguard their privacy and safety.
“The potential of harm to benefeciaries may militate against a full public disclosure of the eventual winners of the financial prize.”
