Garissa residents have accused the police of harassment after one of five people “abducted” on Monday was found locked up at the Anti-Terror Police Unit headquarters in Nairobi. Yusuf, a Madrassa teacher, was picked up by eight ATPU officers from the Madrassa at Bulla Sagarey in Wabere East, Garissa Township constituency. The man, in his 30s, has four children and has been a Madrassa teacher for 15 years. Muhuri chairman Khelef Khalifa said the continued detention of the Madrassa teacher was illegal. During the forum, residents accused intelligence and ATPU officers from outside Garissa of harassing local people.
