Main Story:
Patrick Osoi, a former Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) serviceman, was arrested on Tuesday alongside two police officers. The trio allegedly formed a movement that sought to confront and challenge incidents of police brutality in the country.
The three were presented before the Kahawa Law Courts on Wednesday, where their case began to unfold. Authorities say the formation of the movement raised national security concerns, prompting their swift arrest.
Details surrounding the group’s objectives remain scarce, but initial reports suggest they intended to mobilize and raise awareness about cases of excessive force used by law enforcement. While their actions appeared rooted in social justice, investigators are probing whether the group operated outside legal frameworks.
The court session marked the beginning of a deeper inquiry into the trio’s activities, as officials seek to determine if there were underlying threats to national order or breaches of security laws. The officers involved have not yet publicly commented on the charges.
The arrest has sparked conversations on social media, with many questioning how internal reform efforts are received within the ranks of security agencies.
