Three Arrested Over Osotsi Attack… But Investigators Say This May Not Be the Full Story

The silence around the attack on Vihiga Senator Godfrey Osotsi is beginning to break — but not in the way many expected.

Authorities have now confirmed that three suspects linked to the incident have been arrested in Kisumu by officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI). The arrests come days after growing concern across Vihiga County, where residents have been demanding answers and accountability.

But even with suspects in custody, key questions remain unanswered.

According to investigators, the suspects are currently undergoing intense interrogation as officers try to piece together what really happened. While the arrests mark a major step forward, sources indicate that detectives are not ruling out the possibility of a wider network behind the attack.

That detail alone has raised eyebrows.

The incident itself had already sparked strong reactions from locals, many of whom expressed fear over the safety of leaders in the region. For some, the idea that more individuals could be involved only deepens the concern.

Security officials have moved to calm the situation, assuring the public that investigations are ongoing and that anyone connected to the attack will be brought to justice. Still, the lack of clear motive continues to fuel speculation.

The Unanswered Questions

Why was the senator targeted? Was this an isolated act — or part of something more organized?

Residents have been urged to come forward with any information that could help investigators close the gaps. Meanwhile, tension remains as the community waits for clearer answers.

For now, the arrests may have brought some relief — but they have also opened the door to even more questions.
