@rasilio,pondi.....they hit you with blunt objects otherwise you sue for torture.
...and then later in the night, they release you to the hardcore fellows in the cells who make you their girlfriend that night......

That was very sad, Kenyans just watching an Officer being beaten like that....they still expect the same Cop to safeguard their interests elsewhere.

I really hope the truck driver is ok because i'm sure alichapwa at the police station.....assaulting an Officer!

Somehow, part of my heart tells me to pity the driver and would have wished he got away with it... the other part tells me we would loose all confidence with the police force if they cant contain one person..... Having a friend who was a former cop makes me now understand cops as people. he explained to me how they are forced by their seniors to 'bring back' a certain amount of cash otherwise, you risk spending your days doing shoddy jobs and not going on patrol (of course patrol is lucrative).... so if such a cop had a target, who do you blame? the cop or the system?

But clearly, the cops are so ill equipped on how to deal with citizens... violence never works. what would he have lost if he let the guy go without fighting him and calling othr cops to handle him along the way as they did? He wouldnt do the same when there are many officers.... they would still have managed to arrest him if he had any mistake... professionally...

As for the people in that video... they carried the kenyan spirit well... they did not disappoint... thats how we all are... how many times have you tried to stop a fight in town, or even in your hood?

Both were wrong but guys our biggest concern should be whether that guy will live to see another day.
My fear is unless the media take up the story the guy will dissapear from the public radar kabisa or be found in some dark alley or road by pass with gun wounds on his sorry ass!likewise dont be surprised to see him on news in the near future for having exchanged fire with the mboys in mbru and was nshot ndead and a gun found on him.

A case in point,Around April last year in Kisii Some drunk idiots blocked my way at around midnite when i was driving home.We had a brief exchange of nasty words only to turn out that they were CID officers/flying squad i thank God am still alive coz they chose to beat me senseless and drop me at the local police station for an overnite stay.I say i was lucky coz they would choose to do anything and fabricate stories.The idiots were drunk but forcefully bundled me in my car boot and drove my car to the station.Thats kenyan Police for u.But i still feel for the cop in that clip who is nursing a bloody nose and may be a broken rib.

link to the video, anyone please
