The High Court has once again temporarily suspended the Kenya Police recruitment process. In a ruling dated Monday, November 10, Justice Bahati Mwamuye issued a conservatory order halting the recruitment pending the determination of a petition challenging the process.
The petition raises concerns about alleged irregularities in the recruitment, prompting the court to intervene to ensure fairness and transparency. This is the latest development in a series of legal challenges that have delayed the hiring of new police officers.
The National Police Service had earlier advertised thousands of vacancies, attracting wide public interest. However, the ongoing legal proceedings mean that the recruitment process cannot proceed until the court delivers a final decision.
Police officials have urged applicants to remain patient and await further updates. The outcome of the petition could significantly influence how the recruitment process is conducted in the future.
