Outrage as Policeman is Filmed Grabbing, Squeezing Kenyan Man’s Genitals During Arrest

A video of police officers grabbing and squeezing a man’s genitals during an arrest has sparked uproar among Kenyans on social media.

The eight-second clip that has since gone viral online shows three policemen trying to bundle the man, reported to be a hawker, into a police van after arresting him for allegedly failing to wear a facemask.

The man wearing an orange t-shirt and black pair of trousers appears to resist the officers' attempt to force him into the police vehicle.

One of the officers then forcefully grabs and squeezes his private parts as the man writhes in pain.

The incident is said to have happened in Nakuru town, according to Law Society of Kenya (LSK) president Nelson Havi, who shared the clip on Twitter.

Havi called on Interior CS Fred Matiang’i, the National Police Service and the Independent Police Oversight Authority (IPOA) to take action against the police officers.

"This unfortunate incidence occurred in Nakuru at the entrance of the National Library Services. The three policemen are from Central Police Station. I will conceal the identity of the victim who has been identified. @NPSOfficial_KE, @FredMatiangi, and @IPOA_KE please, take action," Havi wrote.

Dear Kenyans, the grabbing of balls has been used in the country for so long to either torture or to make men follow police orders. Its just now that everyone has a cell phone that we see this recordings but trust me this practices will never end with the kind of police force we have in the country.

He is lucky 8 seconds squeezing balls ,if it's in America it would be 8 minutes crushing the NECK. That was a nicer police officer.

Reforms, new blue police uniforms, pay rise or pay cuts, promotions, demotions, transfers, incarcerations, castrations, corona virus etc CAN NEVER WILL NEVER change the rotten mindset of Kenyan police officers. right as we speak, they are back on the road collecting bribes in the name of enforce covid-19 rules after weeks of starvation. And you will soon listen to Mutiambei or Owino defending them. What a rotten force. And all those bribes goes to eating nyama choma and ugali, making their bellies hang all the way to their knees.

@Wisecounsel...at a time when all black people regardless of their geographical regions are forced to revisit their history after that tragedy in America, YOU should feel ashamed of putting that out here. Shame on you!

He is a damn racist Chinese! All Chinese are very racist! But thanks God someone is cracking whip on them in America by delisting their companies. I would severely whip his ass if he crossed my path!!

When Benard Hinga took over as the 1st Police Commissioner under the supervision of Jomo's Kenyatta, they never reviewed and enacted new policing laws. They pretty much copied & pasted the white colonial powers and run with them. That why you see similarities between what happening here and in Kenya. We as Kenyans, we as Africans we as black people need to rethink our own policing laws.

Tulipata uhuru yapata karibu miaka 57 iliyopita. Kwa nini tunazidi kuitukuza lugha ya Kiingewreza ambayo imetuletea uhalifu ambao unasumbua nchi yetu tukufu ya Kenya!
Kabla Ndugu zetu Waingereza hawajafika Kenya, Mathare, Majengo, Kawangware,au Kibera haikuwepo.

Ni lazima tusimame kidete halafu tuhakikishe ya kwamba, mnamo uchaguzi wa 2022, wahalifu wote wametimuliwa kwa manufaa ya umma. Mhalifu ni nani? au adui wa Kenya ni nani? Ni mtu yeyote ambaye amepokea au kutoa rushwa huku akijidai ya kwamba yeye ni mzalendo!

Wakati umefika sasa ambao tunahitaji kuyang'oa magugu yote nchini na kufanya Kenya iheshimiwe duniani kote.

Mtu yeyote ambaye amepokea rushwa au kutoa rushwa hafai hata kidogo kuwa kiongozi wa Kenya mnamo mwaka wa 2022.

KENYA MPYA: VIONGOZI WOTE WAPYA 2022.
