DCI investigation: fast updates, clear timelines, and what to watch

DCI investigations can change politics, business deals, and public trust overnight. If you want straight facts without the noise, this tag collects every major update, court step, and official statement tied to DCI probes across the region.

We focus on the who, what, when and why. Who is under investigation? What are the alleged offences? When did events happen and what are the next court dates? Why does this matter to citizens or businesses? You’ll find short timelines, links to official documents when available, and plain-language explanations so you can follow the story without legal jargon.

How we cover DCI investigations

We track developments from the first notice to final rulings. That means police statements, charge sheets, court filings, bail hearings, and verdicts. When there is a leak or a viral clip, we check original sources before reporting. Expect quick alerts for breaking news and fuller explainers that unpack evidence, legal terms, and likely outcomes.

Our reporters aim to show documents and cite names, dates, and places. If a story changes, we update it and note the new facts. We avoid speculation and flag unverified claims clearly. If you read a headline here, you should know the basis for it and where the information came from.

How to follow and verify DCI updates

Want to keep up without getting overwhelmed? Start with a few simple checks: look for official DCI or court documents, note the date on statements, and watch for multiple independent sources confirming the same fact. Screenshots and social posts are useful, but they’re not proof on their own.

Check court calendars or public registries for hearing dates. If a name or charge is unclear, search the full charge sheet rather than relying on summaries. For financial or corporate probes, ask for transaction dates and receipts if they’re published. For political cases, track both the legal filings and statements from all parties involved.

If you see a sensational claim, pause and ask: who benefits from this version of the story? That simple question helps spot planted leaks or biased briefs. You can also email our newsroom with documents or tips — we verify before publishing and protect sources when needed.

Follow this tag for rolling coverage and subscribe to alerts to get updates as they happen. If a case affects public services, budgets, or elections, we’ll highlight the practical consequences so you know what might change in your community.

DCI Launches Investigation into Alleged Acquisition of Pistol Used in Tom Mboya’s Assassination

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has opened an inquiry into claims that Ndwiga Kathamba, a 92-year-old man, purchased the pistol used in the 1969 assassination of Tom Mboya. Kathamba alleges involvement by KANU youth members in a plot to eliminate Mboya and details his role in acquiring the weapons from the black market. These claims have prompted the DCI to investigate further.
