The criminals who hijacked Kirinyaga Deputy Governor Peter Ndambiri and forced him to undress are still threatening him after he failed to give them money.
Ndambiri said he is living in fear for his life because of the threats. He was allegedly hijacked in April when his naked video was circulated online.
Speaking at a public baraza at Wanguru DC offices, Ndambiri said the arrest and prosecution of some of his kidnappers has not stopped the threats.
“The government should deal with these criminals conclusively. If they can intimidate a whole deputy governor, what about an ordinary person?” Ndambiri said.
The meeting was held to find ways of ending increasing cases of armed robbery in Mwea.
“As you know, I was filmed while stark naked by these criminals and forced to confess many embarrassing issues at gun point. At long last, they robbed me of a lot of money yet they are still issuing threats against me,” he said. “I can’t continue living in perpetual fear. I dare them to come and face me now.”
Ndambiri said the gang tortured and humiliated him during the ordeal. He said most of his attackers were from the area.
“I escaped death by a whisker. It’s only through God’s grace that I’m alive today and can speak to you and explain what happened,” he said amidst cheers from amused residents.
