Gunfire and Unrest as More Bodies are Retrieved from Kware, Mukuru Slums
Hundreds of locals mill around the Kware area of Pipeline after bodies were discovered

Tensions have escalated at Kware Police Station as growing crowds become increasingly disorderly over the recovery of five additional sacks holding human corpses.

The retrieval of multiple bodies found in sacks has drawn large crowds and sparked unrest in the area. Authorities initially reported recovering six bodies on Friday though eyewitness accounts suggested a higher number. The arrival of the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) escalated the situation as they began transferring the contents of the sacks into body bags, a grim process that attracted numerous onlookers and heightened emotions among the gathered crowd.

The scene quickly devolved into chaos as police resorted to firing warning shots into the air to maintain order. By mid-afternoon, two water cannons were positioned to potentially disperse the growing throng of people. However, crowd control remained a significant challenge despite the arrival of additional police reinforcements including Recce Squad officers. Some individuals broke through police cordons with some even threatening to open the sacks themselves,.

In an attempt to regain control, law enforcement erected rope barriers around the police station to keep the surging crowd at bay. However, the strong odour emanating from the sacks only intensified the unease and curiosity of onlookers who watched the unfolding events with a mixture of horror and fascination. Authorities are working to identify the victims and determine the circumstances that led to their remains being discarded in such a manner.

The community remains on edge as the death toll continues to rise with reports indicating that at least 15 bodies have been retrieved from the nearby Kware dumpsite and more are yet to be recovered. Residents of Mukuru Kwa Njenga have also come forward with accounts of discovering bodies in sacks, adding to the growing tally of victims.

    Samoei:

    You have been campaigning non-stop since 2015 and neglecting your duties while using public money. Musalia and Rigathi: Could you please direct Samoei where his office is located on Harambee avenue?
    In honor of the people who lost their lives while peacefully demonstrating, could you respect their sudden departure from our only home, planet earth by suspending all road-show campaigns indefinitely?

  4. YES poop katiba voters…
    YES poop katiba voters should be the last to complain.The idiots plus,katiba photocopiers and human rights thugs legalized murder/human slaughter and Raila cannibalism the moment they gave murder suspects more rights than victims’ families.What can you say about 6.2m.AKILIMAWE YES voters who removed death sentence as the only punishment for murder?Mauaji shiku hizi ni kama inzi wanaua.

  5. Firing warning shots where?…
    Firing warning shots where? A bullet let loose ends up somewhere, and most likely on humans head, whether it is shot horizontally or vertically or whatever?!? Like Trump is very lucky, it was just an amateur 20 years old boy not the Team Seal Six he would command to go after his enemies!!! Irresponsible use of guns kills people, whether be by police or the criminals!!

  6. Trump shooter should have…
    Trump shooter should have practiced shooting skills with the corrupt heads of Kenyan presidential candidates during the 2022 elections.Kenyan laws drafted by human rights thugs demand that the murderer be arrested and tried by corrupt judiciary.On conviction,the Raila would caged for a few years then bribe his way to freedom.

  7. Comrades,

    Comrades,
    The government denied giturai 45 massacre.
    Could these bodies be of those killed in giturai?

    • The situation in Kenya is…
      The situation in Kenya is dire.The killing are just compounding the problems.And as history has proven, extrajudicial killing are hardly ever investigated… Comrade @ KK, if I were Dr. Ruto now,I would just step down and say ,”these problems are beyond me.I need peace of the mind.Let me resign,and head to the seminary to become a preacher like Ng’ang’a May be I can handle a church- a big prosperity church better,and profitably.Yes I can”

  9. Kenya will soon be free…
    Kenya will soon be free.
    These victims blood has paid for final freedom of our country.
    Let us watch the events that follow.
    Physical might is on display and about to be lendered useless.
    Soon Kenya’s enemies both within and without will flee the country without being chased by anyone.
    They will find no need to stay in the country because their blessings have come to an end.
    It’s the end of the blessing of the “sword” and the beginning of the blessing of ” Peace” on earth.
    What we are witnessing in Kenya is the transition.
    Separation is here, those of the “sword” and those of “Peace”
