They are specifically selected to be dim and violent with a low threshold for questions. So when they get paid, they are more than willing to do all sorts of nonsense that only criminal elements would deign worthy of their efforts. We have seen Kenyan police officers shoot and kill children, we have seen them get themselves involved in political assassinations and have been on the brutal end of their antics on civilians. Hell, they killed nearly as many people as Covid19 had at one point simply trying to &#8220;enforce&#8221; the government-mandated curfew.<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #008000\"><a style=\"color: #008000\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/worry-after-edgar-obare-gets-arrested-his-location-unknown\/\">Worry after Edgar Obare gets arrested, his location unknown<\/a><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>And we saw the manner in which Edgar Obare was originally handled by the DCI and the police when he was originally arrested. This would be keeping in line with the same narrative. Afterall, he has made powerful enemies by running his tabloid micro-blog on IG and as a result certain people who would rather not have their personal lives scrutinized would be invested in either &#8220;teaching him a lesson&#8221; or getting him out of the way and setting an example with him.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_142407\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-142407\" style=\"width: 946px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/08\/EefOry_WsAAFaMt.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-142407\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/08\/EefOry_WsAAFaMt.jpeg\" alt=\"Edgar Obare\" width=\"946\" height=\"1302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/08\/EefOry_WsAAFaMt.jpeg 946w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/08\/EefOry_WsAAFaMt-218x300.jpeg 218w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/08\/EefOry_WsAAFaMt-744x1024.jpeg 744w, https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2020\/08\/EefOry_WsAAFaMt-768x1057.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 946px) 100vw, 946px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-142407\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Edgar Obare\u00b4s charge sheet<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Whatever your take on the matter, whether you agree with Joe Muchiri that these are shenanigans or you agree with edgar Obare that something fishy is happening, stay safe.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For more thought-provoking opinion pieces, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ghafla.co.ke\/ke\/author\/ozymandias\/\"><span style=\"color: #008000\"><strong>click here<\/strong><\/span><\/a>.
