Nairobi: A political analyst has moved to court to compel Cabinet Secretary CS Joseph Nkaissery and Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet and to give guidelines and code of public protests to ensure the rights of those who do not take to the streets are protected.

Ngunjiri Wambugu Thursday filed a petition at the Constitutional division of the High court claiming that properties belonging to innocent Kenyans are often destroyed in protests as was recently witnessed during the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD) demonstrations over Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).
