Office of The Director of Public Prosecutions

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) in Kenya is an independent constitutional office mandated to institute and undertake criminal prosecutions on behalf of the state. Established under Article 157 of the Constitution of Kenya, the ODPP is led by the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP), who ensures justice is served without fear, favour, or prejudice. The office reviews investigation files, decides whether to prosecute, and directs investigations where necessary. It also promotes accountability, transparency, and fairness in the criminal justice system. The ODPP plays a vital role in upholding the rule of law and protecting public interest.
