CCTV: police took 24 minutes to move Albert Ojwang from van to Mbagathi casualty

Key points

  • CCTV timelines indicate police arrived at Mbagathi Hospital at 1:35 a.m. and took roughly 24 minutes to move Albert Ojwang from the van to casualty.
  • The footage detail is part of public scrutiny as the murder trial continues with intentions to conclude within months.
  • Minutes at a hospital door can become central evidence in custody-death cases.

Time stamps do not shout; they accumulate. Eastleigh Voice reports CCTV analysis showing police took 24 minutes to move Albert Ojwang from a van to casualty at Mbagathi, with the vehicle arriving at 1:35 a.m. — about 10 minutes after leaving a prior location cited in coverage. Separately, KBC notes the Albert Ojwang murder trial continues, with the court signalling intent to conclude within a defined period such as six months.

For families and the public, delay between arrival and casualty access raises hard questions about urgency, condition on arrival, and chain of custody. For the defence and prosecution, every minute must be explained with logs, medical notes and officer testimony.

Why this case matters

Deaths linked to police handling test IPOA, ODPP and public trust. Transparent trials, protected witnesses and full video disclosure are the minimum. Trial-by-social-media helps no one if it contaminates evidence.

Due process

Accused persons remain innocent until proven guilty. The court’s timetable should be matched with resources so justice is neither rushed nor endless.
