The Interior Ministry has withheld Sh400 million meant for police insurance cover following failure by the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) to account for previous allocations.

Interior Principal Secretary Karanja Kibicho told Parliament that the money has been deducted from premiums that the National Police Service (NPS) is required to remit to the NHIF for provision of comprehensive medical cover for 131,816 security personnel.
