The Immigration Department has revealed details of when former Interior CS Fred Matiangi left the country.

In a letter addressed to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations, the State Department for citizen services revealed that Matiang'i left the country a week before he was summoned.

"The subject departed on February 19, 2023, through JKIA  on KLM flight number  KL566," reads the letter.

The letter was written by Director General Emmanuel Simiyu, dated February 28, 2023.

Last Friday, Matiang'i had been summoned to appear before the DCI.

In a letter, detective Michael Sang directed Matiang'i to appear before him at Mazingira House at 9.30 am without fail.

"I have reasons to believe that you, Dr Fred Matiang'i, the former Cabinet Secretary, Ministry of Interior and National Co-ordination, is connected to the offence or has information which can assist me in my investigations," detective Sang said last Friday.

However,  Matiang'i said he will not be available for questioning by the DCI since he was out of the country.

The bone of contention revolves around the alleged raid in which police denied involvement and said they sought a court order to obtain CCTV footage from Matiang'i's home.

The officers broke into his residence on February 15, ransacked the house and left.
