According to an EACC source, The two officers demanded Ksh.50,000 from the complainant as "motivation money" for the Deputy OCS to release the complainant's motor vehicle, which he had adamantly refused to release despite a valid court order presented to him by the complainant.

They were processed at the EACC Integrity Centre Police Station before being moved to the Kilimani Police Station, where they are now being held pending legal proceedings.
