A video showing Kasarani traffic police officers manhandling a woman along Thika superhighway has caused uproar on social media.
In the video, the officers, who included two policewomen, are seen trying to force the woman from a vehicle as she viciously protested.
Other passengers could be heard telling the officers to get into the vehicle and go with her to the police station.
Blogger Robert Alai tweeted: “Hey traffic officers. This behavior is not permitted in the current world. Try to be civil in some arrests. Pulling and manhandling the lady this way is wrong. Just wrong!!! Force doesn’t show authority.”
According to traffic monitoring handle, @Kenyatraffic, the lady recording this incident was arrested in the incident.
It added: “One day the monkeys will get tired of being bullied by the gorillas and they will fight for their rights. It will be messy…”
Here is the video:

New way to scare public so that they can’t record abuse.#ReleaseNjeri via JacksonNjeru254 pic.twitter.com/adefCLEVJS— KenyanTraffic (@KenyanTraffic) February 5, 2019
