Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 50995, member: 636"] Rigathi Gachagua's political party launched a blistering attack against Raila Odinga after the veteran politician spoke out against deadly police tactics. The Democracy for the Citizens Party accused the former Prime Minister of playing both sides while blood spilled on Kenyan streets. Deputy party leader Cleophas Malalah branded Raila's recent statements as fake and contradictory. The DCP leaders pointed fingers at ODM youth who allegedly helped authorities crush demonstrations. They claimed Raila enables government brutality while pretending to care about human rights. Raila had earlier condemned orders for police to shoot protesters during law enforcement operations. The ODM chief called for arrests instead of killings while urging respect for suspect rights. He warned against giving security forces deadly powers over citizens who break laws. The former premier emphasized that military-style policing increases violence risks for everyone involved. His statement targeted President William Ruto and Interior Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen who promised harsh crackdowns. The DCP dismissed Raila's words as desperate damage control for his tarnished reputation. Party officials argued that his alliance with the current administration makes him responsible for citizen suffering. They accused him of participating in a government linked to kidnappings and extrajudicial murders. The political warfare erupted during renewed protests that killed multiple demonstrators across the country. Human rights groups counted 31 deaths while police reported only 11 fatalities from the latest unrest. [/QUOTE]
