The Law Society of Kenya President, Her Excellency Faith Odhiambo, has condemned the recent arrest and detention of yet another innocent Kenyan, Shadrack Kiprono. In a statement, President Odhiambo expressed her deep concern and called for urgent action against the perpetrators.
“Good afternoon, friends. Yesterday evening, another innocent young Kenyan fell victim to the draconian tactics of rogue police officers. Shadrack Kiprono was violently abducted by unidentified persons believed to be intelligence officers in South B while getting into his vehicle.
The abduction, which was captured on CCTV footage, shows three men in masks descend upon @Shad_khalif and force him into a white Land Cruiser. Evidently, this was not an arrest as the police did not identify themselves or engage in any conversation prior to the arrest to inform him of his rights. These criminals pretending to exercise police authority must be stopped.
We condemn the sustained unconstitutionalities and atrocities being perpetrated by the police and demand the immediate release of Shad. The @LawSocietyofKe is all hands on deck to find Shad’s whereabouts and identify the criminal faction of the Police carrying out these abductions.”
President Odhiambo’s statement highlights the increasing concern over the actions of rogue elements within the police force, which undermine the rule of law and the rights of Kenyan citizens. The Law Society of Kenya is actively working to locate Shadrack Kiprono and ensure that those responsible for his abduction are brought to justice.
