The National Police Service Commission has stated that at least 300 officers are facing the sack due to decline in submission of their M-Pesa statements and bank details to facilitate their vetting by the Johnstone Kavuludi- led commission.
Speaking at the Kenya school of Government on Monday in Mombasa, Kavuludi revealed that all officers were supposed to submit the said details before the vetting process kicked off on May 24 but failed to do so.
Kavuludi noted that the NPSC commissioners would compile a list of the officers who will lose their jobs and then pay them their dues.
He also warned police officers who have resorted to collecting quick money from touts stating that they risk being axed should the allegations against them be proved.The ongoing police vetting in Mombasa that ends on Saturday has unmasked a corruption network through which millions of shillings was exchanged among senior cops.
High ranking officers such as Senior Superintendent Joseph Kimei, Superintendents Gikanda Douglas, Eliud Monare and David Ndungu Wanga have been named as among those extorting money from their juniors.
