The National Police Service has strongly dismissed viral claims that Central Police Station OCS, Chief Inspector Dishen Angoya, was set to appear in court, calling the reports “entirely erroneous and misleading.”
In a statement issued on Tuesday evening, NPS Spokesperson Muchiri Nyaga clarified that no court processes had been initiated against the embattled officer. The matter, the service stressed, will be handled through internal disciplinary mechanisms rather than the judicial system.
Angoya shot into the spotlight after allegedly facilitating the release of 64 suspects arrested during Monday’s nationwide #RejectFuelPrices protests. His subsequent arrest and hospitalization at Lang’ata triggered a wave of online speculation, with many Kenyans hailing him as a hero for showing compassion amid the chaotic demonstrations.
Confirming the developments, sources indicate that Angoya was later released unconditionally following his medical treatment. The NPS maintained that established internal procedures, including possible probes by the Internal Affairs Unit, will determine the next course of action.
The unfolding drama at Central Police Station has sparked heated national debate. While some commend Angoya’s on-the-ground discretion during the fuel price protests, others view it as a critical test of police accountability and command structure.
This latest twist comes at a time when Central Police Station remains under intense public scrutiny. As fuel prices continue to dominate headlines, Angoya’s case highlights the delicate balance between operational decisions and institutional expectations.
The NPS has urged Kenyans to rely only on official communication channels for accurate updates on the matter.
