Meanwhile, the National Police Service has taken note of some distasteful, malicious and unprofessional reporting appearing online and attributed to some media houses linking a senior police officer to some love triangle involving a junior officer and his wife.
According to NPS, the said reporting fails to name the officer and wife involved, but goes ahead to name the senior officer, and more so, without seeking out his comment as expected.
“We find this reporting very malicious, ill-willed and meant to assisinate the character of the senior officer. The motivation remains unclear. Kenyans are urged to ignore the said sensational online media reporting,” National Police Service statement read.
The National Police Service urged media to exercise professionalism in reporting that has the potentiality of character assasination.
K24 was forced to retract a story from their website that had sensationally linked the Deputy Inspector General (IG) of Police Edward Mbugua to a love triangle with a junior cop and his wife.
According to the now deleted story, the publication had alleged that the policeman identified as Wycliffe Ombede, who broke down in tears while narrating his trouble claimed he received a call from a man who introduced himself as his boss and told him to keep away from his wife or suffer dire consequences.
He said that the caller went ahead and threatened him that he should stop calling his ex-wife forthwith or face serious consequences.
