 The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has distanced itself from the incident, denying any role in the abduction.

However, the agency confirmed that Koimburi has been under investigation since Friday for alleged involvement in land fraud and misappropriation of Constituency Development Funds (CDF).

 Mrs. Koimburi has voiced her frustration over the authorities' handling of the matter, citing previous incidents where her husband’s phone and vehicle were confiscated during investigations, yet no updates were provided on his status.
