Former Interior CS Fred Matiang'i has been officially summoned to the DCI over an alleged raid at his Karen home.
The former CS is expected to appear at the DCI headquarters on Tuesday to shed light on his alleged home raid.
The summons has been served this afternoon at the Milimani Law Court to his lawyer Danstan Omari who protested.
The summons by Senior Superintendent Michael Sang was served by officer Mishack at 1.15 pm
However, even though Omari received the summons, he signed the summons that he was served in court under protest.
The former CS jetted back to the country on Saturday night after a two-week trip to the UK but did not disclose whether he will honour summons to appear before detectives.
Matiang'i was in the news prior to his flying out to the UK on February 19 after DCI summoned him to record a statement in connection with an alleged police raid at his home in Karen.
Matiang'i landed on Saturday night aboard KLM Flight 0566 and was received at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport by close family members.
His departure on February 19 sparked speculations that he had sneaked out of the country to evade detectives before it was clarified he was on a private trip to UK.
Those close to him however said he was keen to clear his name over claims of false publication of information.
The Immigration Department had revealed that Matiangi left the country a week before he was summoned. "The subject departed on February 19, 2023, through JKIA on KLM flight number KL566," Immigration director general Emmanuel Simiyu told police in a letter dated February 28.
Matiang'i had been summoned to appear before detective Michael Sang for questioning without fail.
But Matiang'i said he would not be available 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.
This was after it was alleged that a group of elite police officers surrounded the home of the former Interior CS in Karen, Nairobi on February 8.
The reason behind the sudden raid remained unclear.
