Interior CS Murkomen visits family of slain priest fr Allois Cheruiyot

Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen now says slain priest Allois Cheruiyot Bett was a victim of a retaliatory attack by bandits displaced from their hideouts during the ongoing ‘Operation Maliza Uhalifu.’ Murkomen, who condoled with the family of the late priest in Nandi County, reiterated the government's commitment to bring all perpetrators to justice. Catholic priests, speaking during a church event in Elgeyo Marakwet dedicated to the late Cheruiyot — a known peace champion in Kerio Valley — have called for urgent action to end the cycle of violence that continues to claim innocent lives.
