The ugly side of Kenya’s police force reared its head again on Tuesday after a video capturing five traffic officers roughing up a woman passenger went viral online. Njeri Wa Muthoni, who was recording the video as the scuffle unfolded, was swiftly arrested and taken to Kasarani police station. They didn’t want the video taken and demanded her to delete it but she declined. Once at Kasarani police station, Biko claims he was assaulted by the officers. However according to a source who spoke to Mr Muchemi, Biko was set to be released by the end of the day on a police cash bail of Ksh10,000.
