Cnyakundi.com has received information that police brutalised party-goers in Kileleshwa.
Good Afternoon Cyprian,
I am here to report yesterday’s night police brutality and thuggery within.
Around 9.00 Pm yesterday, Othaya Road Kilimani, our family was having end of year celebrations at our compound. Police came around 70 in about 15 land cruisers.
They arrested all of them, took them to Muthangari police stations, put them in one cell. They assaulted ladies as per the videos and photos shared. On realizing how they have brutalized them, they released them around 3. Am today. No OB booked no nothing. They were demanding 20000 ksh but when they realized the damage they had done they had to release them.
They stole cameras and laptops.
A Twitter user MALI SAFI (@Hylinee) also narrated it in full as below:
