Police conduct yesterday came under scrutiny as, Kenyans, leaders and human rights organisation Amnesty International Kenya questioned the manner in which online personality Mildred Atieno Owino was arrested.
Owino is the most well known admin of the Facebook Group, Buyer Beware. The group exposes people, but this time she found herself posting her own saga on Facebook Live as it unfolded when police came busting down her door. She live-streamed a group of police in civilian clothes getting into her compound, lobbying teargas canisters and eventually breaking into her home to arrest her. She also said the police killed her dogs.
