LSK Wants Police To Conduct Thorough Investigations Over Missing Lawyer Lilan

The Law Society of Kenya wants police to carry out thorough investigations and locate the whereabouts of missing lawyer Simon Lilan.

LSK president Isaack Okero says he has spoken to Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet and urged him to facilitate the safe return of the missing lawyer.

Lilan went missing on Monday and his family says their efforts to trace his whereabouts have borne no fruits. He is the one who had obtained orders to stop the burial of former nominated MP Mark Too.

Led by brother John Tallam, and his wife Irene said the lawyer was last seen on Monday at about 11am in Eldoret town after which his phones went off.

He has claimed that his life was in danger and that he had received threatening calls from unknown people asking him to stop pushing for independent investigations into the death of Mark Too.

Tallam says Lilan who has said he wants to vie for the Senate seat in Uasin Gishu was to go for a meeting at Ziwa on Monday which is the same day Too was buried after a court lifted orders stopping the event.

It is not clear where he is.
