Kenyan Police Deny Ever Arresting Paul Kobia
Get your facts right people! The Kenyan Police seems to say. This is after it was widely reported yesterday that Paul Kobia had been arrested at Village market over allegations that he had openly confessed that he knew who and what killed Fidel Odinga and was being held at Gigiri police station pending investigation.
The police urged the public not to take to heart anything that Kobia said as the business man was not of sound mind, it had been reported that business man Kobia had erstwhile been involved in a brawl with the late Fidel at a Kilimani restaurant where he was beaten up badly by Fidel’s body guards thereby sustaining serious injuries. The licensed gun holder was also involved in a gun drama last year where he openly admitted have gunned down a robber along Limuru Road.
The Kenyan police has however denied the allegations that they arrested the irate business man, they have issued a statement distancing themselves from the said arrest. At the time of the said arrest, early morning yesterday, Kobia was in the company of his long time friend, The Nairobi Senator:- Mike Sonko, it is said that Sonko’s Body guards disarmed the business man when he became violent.
Apparently the family of the business Man had sought help from the police to help them restrain Mr. Kobia who had assumed violence and was shouting incoherently. The family was assisted and the patient was taken to a psychiatrist for evaluation.
