It would appear from the Statement of Rae Hamonga, Police Spokesman, that indeed an offence was committed and, if so, the justice system had to kick in. There is no need for blame game as to who reported. All criminal and even civil cases have to be reported by someone.
It may be that Mr. Abel Ngandu does not quite understand that Ngandu Consulting Limited is a separate legal entity or juridical person at law. Read case of Salomon vs Salomon & Co.found in any basic law text book.
