DAILY POST: NYS builds house for hero GSU officer killed in Dusit D2 terror attack as BOINNET promises befitting send off (PHOTO) 07:44 Wednesday, January 23, 2019 - The gallant General Service Unit (GSU) officer killed in the Dusit D2 terror attack last week will be accorded a heroic send off according to Inspector General of Police, Joseph Boinnet.


Boinnet revealed that the Police Service is already building a house for the family of the late Japhet Ndunguja Nuru at the officer’s rural home in Kimala village in Taita Taveta County. The National Youth Service is undertaking the construction of the house, using free labour from inmates in a nearby prison. “We are catering for all the funeral expenses of this gallant officer who died in the line of duty as per our Service Standing Orders,” Boinnet said Tuesday. “I’ve given orders that the body is taken home by helicopter on Friday and I’ve planned to personally attend the funeral on Saturday. CS (Fred) Matiangi is also planning to attend.” “We’ve even gone beyond usual policy and at the moment we are building a house for the family and this is being done by the National Youth Service who are undertaking the work.” Interior CS Dr. Fred Matiang’i has also personally visited parents of the late officer to condole with them.
