Two AK-47 rifles recovered after deadly attack on police reservists in Isiolo

A joint operation led by the DCI Crime Scene Investigations (CSI) team and supported by GSU Kipsing officers has recovered two AK-47 rifles with empty magazines at Lemorijo village, Lengurma Location in Isiolo North Sub-County.

The recovery follows a brutal attack on April 7, 2025, where three National Police Reservists (NPR) from Igembe North, Meru County, were fatally shot by armed raiders.

Authorities believe the recovered firearms were used during the deadly assault.

The successful operation was made possible through coordinated efforts between elite security teams, the local administration, members of the public, and officers from DCI Igembe North, who have since taken over the investigations.

The DCI praised the teams for their commitment to maintaining law and order, emphasising that the case remains under active investigation.

Further updates will be provided as the probe into the attack continues.
