Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be a right-angled triangle with BAC=90\angle BAC = 90^{\circ}. Let the height from AA cut its side BCBC at DD. Let I,IB,ICI, I_B, I_C be the incenters of triangles ABC,ABD,ACDABC, ABD, ACD respectively. Let also EB,ECEB, EC be the excenters of ABCABC with respect to vertices BB and CC respectively. If KK is the point of intersection of the circumcircles of ECIBIE_CIB_I and EBICIE_BIC_I, show that KIKI passes through the midpoint MM of side BCBC.
