A wheelchair-using man from Kilifi County has spent three consecutive days sleeping outside the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) office in Malindi, refusing to leave until officers attend to his case concerning the alleged murder of his father in 2022.
Steve Kitsao Masha told those following his story online that he had been summoned by the DCIO to provide further details about his father's death.
Yet, despite arriving at the office at 10 am, he waited for hours without being received or even acknowledged by the investigating officer.

Frustrated by the prolonged wait, Steve eventually lowered himself out of his wheelchair and lay on the ground outside the offices. The act drew the attention of other officers, who alerted the DCIO. It was only then that the officer came out to address him.
