Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 51170, member: 636"] Kenya Human Rights Commission leaders blasted cops for refusing to chase down thugs who invaded their headquarters last Sunday. The attackers stormed through security barriers at the Gitanga road offices and roughed up grieving mothers plus news reporters. Police bosses have stayed silent about the brazen assault while aggressively pursuing other criminals from recent Saba Saba demonstrations. The mothers had gathered to speak out against brutal treatment of peaceful protesters by law enforcement officers. Commission officials handed over crystal clear security camera recordings that captured the raiders red-handed. The violent gang smashed into the building during a planned media event and made off with expensive laptops and mobile phones. Rights advocates suspect government agents orchestrated the attack because police refuse to investigate despite having solid video evidence. The footage reveals the exact faces of young men who grabbed the stolen equipment before fleeing the scene. Commission bosses demanded that detectives immediately arrest the perpetrators and force them to return the missing devices. Human rights groups have grown increasingly worried about official harassment targeting their members across the country. Police reform activists recently filed complaints about rising threats against civil society workers fighting for justice. Three prominent campaigners named John Nzau, Mark Amiani and Francis Mwangi faced arrest and criminal charges during the recent crackdown. The dangerous climate has made advocacy work much harder for organizations trying to protect ordinary citizens from abuse. Legal experts warn that democratic freedoms continue shrinking as authorities use intimidation tactics against critics. [/QUOTE]
