Makueni Senator Daniel Maanzo called out the the Director of Public Prosecutions Renson Ingonga for his findings on the murder of Rex Masai who died during the first round of anti-government protests on June 20.
Maanzo was speaking at a funeral on Saturday when he accused the DPP of handling the case in an unprofessional manner leaving the family of the deceased with more questions than answers.
The funeral was for another protest victim, Alex Muteti, where the politicians remarked that if the DPP was compromised, he should resign and allow the President to appoint a new able individual to the crucial position.
"The office of the DPP is very important. If you are compromised and intimidated by the government you should resign. You cannot deliver justice for Kenyans," he stated.
According to the politician, the DPP's call for any witnesses to present relevant information was an indicator of his inability to handle the role.
The Senator argued that the DPP knew who knew the suspects in the murders but was reluctant to recommend any arrests.
Maanzo emphasised that Ingonga's office must ensure that all those who were killed during the protests face the law.
"Many people have been killed and he was not even participating in the demonstrations. We tell the president that Alex's blood is on his hands," he stated.
He emphasised that Parliament should convene to send to DPP home for failing to guarantee justice for the affected families and Kenya at large.
The DPP on Tuesday revealed the CCTV footage of Masai's shooting fails to clearly identify the shooter, casting a shadow over the investigation.
Masai was among at least 40 other Kenyans who lost their lives since the protests began on June 18. Others have been injured, and arrested while others were abducted.
On the day of Masai's death, there was a large group of young Kenyans in the Nairobi Central Business District (CBD) who were protesting at night.
A plain-clothed man suspected to have been an officer was spotted firing in the direction of the protestors hitting Rex who died while awaiting treatment at a local hospital.
His family demanded justice and last week accused the government of attempting to cover up the murder. This was after the DPP issued his statement.
