Consequently, curfew hours run between 7pm and 4am, unlike other parts of Kenya. The officers claim they found patrons still drinking yet the 7pm curfew cut-off had clocked. During the melee, one of the rungu-wielding cops hit 35-year-old Achieng in the head, eyewitnesses say. A witness, Lawrence Omondi, said the bar where Achieng worked had closed by 7pm, “only that there were a few patrons inside”. Look at Achieng… she was killed by a police officer, tasked with ensuring laws on Covid-19 containment are followed.
