A recent Senate grilling of Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki and Inspector General Japhet Koome highlighted the demand for the release of CCTV footage from the OCS office where Ojwang died. Senator [Senator's Name], a key figure in the grilling, stated, "CS Murkomen and IG Kanja, you used the Bible and Quran to take oath and tell us the truth, tell us where the CCTV at the OCS office is."
